Senior internationals snub for Junho amid speculation on future

BAE Junho has been selected for summer duty with South Korea under-23s, rather than the senior team, amid speculation over his club future.

The 21-year-old playmaker has been chosen as the lead model for Stoke City’s new kit for 2025/26, the first full season under new manager Mark Robins - the fourth boss that Junho has had during his 21 months in the Potteries.

‘The Seoul press is explaining the call-up of Jeon Jin-woo, aged 25 and playing for Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors in the K-League, as being linked to “the recent decline” in form of European-based players like Junho, Swansea's Eom Ji-sung and Spurs’ QPR loanee Yang Min-hyeok, who have also missed out with the seniors this time around.
