Pedro Neto has claimed that Leeds United January transfer target Hwang Hee-chan has been shown ‘no respect’ with his FIFA 23 rating.
The latest edition of FIFA is set to be released in less than 24 hours and, like always, players’ ratings are always a talking point.
Even if footballers don’t play the game, there is always interest in what rating they have been handed and Hwang Hee-chan is no different.
Well, the versatile forward won’t be too pleased because his rating, from last season, has dropped down to 77.
One area that caught the 26-year-old’s eye is his pace, which is 81 rated.
When speaking about his FIFA card to his club teammates, Neto and Ruben Neves agreed that he should have been rated higher in the pace department, as they told Wolves’ official YouTube account.
“It’s very, very bad my friend,” said Neves. “How many do you think you have overall,” Neves asked Hwang Hee-Chan to which he responded “minimum 85.”
Neves then responded: “What?!” Hwang Hee-Chan then added, “The last time I had 78. No, it’s down? (Now 77 rated) I don’t take it.”
Pedro Neto then reacted to Hwang Hee-Chan’s 81 pace: “They have no respect man. You have to think about it.”
Neves added: “Your pace is really low for your real pace. They need to start doing tests before they do the cards.”
LEEDS TARGETING HWANG HEE-CHAN FOR JANUARY
During the 2022 summer transfer window, Hwang Hee-chan was a player Leeds tried to sign, but a move didn’t materialise for the player.
Leeds didn’t exactly have the window they would have wanted, well towards the end anyway, especially the drama surrounding Bamba Dieng.
But it seems as though, during the January transfer window, Leeds will still try to push for the Wolves forward.
Bruno Lage has made some big calls this season, including allowing captain Conor Coady to leave on loan, so it will be interesting to see how the Midlands side react if those from Yorkshire do come knocking again.
