Seoul: Reigning K League Classic champions Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors have reinforced their squad with the signing of playmaker Son Jun-ho for the 2018 season.
The Korea Republic club said they have signed Son - who was with Pohang Steelers - to a four-year contract.
Jeonbuk said Son will strengthen their midfield with Lee Jae-sung, last year's K League Classic MVP.
Son registered 14 goals and 20 assists in 99 matches since making his pro debut with Pohang in 2014. Last year, he was the K League Classic's top assist maker with 14 assists in 35 matches.
The 25-year-old was also a member of the Korea Republic U23 national team that won the gold medal at the 2014 Asian Games.
Jeonbuk are in Group E of the 2018 AFC Champions League alongside Kitchee SC and two qualifiers from the East Play-offs.
