For Brighton and Hove Albion, Yoon Do-young is a lottery worth 3.8 billion won.

According to local news reports, Brighton paid 2 million pounds (about 3.8 billion won) to recruit Yoon. This is a considerable amount in terms of the K-League, but the amount is not high in the Premier League, where soccer capital is concentrated. Considering that Yoon is an 18-year-old promising player, Brighton has bought a lottery ticket with a chance to win.

Instead of playing for Brighton directly, Yoon Do-young will gain experience through a loan and will be determined by his growth. This is the path that many players who have gone through Brighton have walked, including Kaoru Mitoma, a Japanese national team who is currently playing as a key striker for Brighton. Brighton will be waiting for the "Yoon Do-young Lottery" purchased in Asia to burst after Mitoma.

K-League Daejeon Hana Citizen announced Yoon Do-young's transfer to Brighton on the 21st (Korea time). Yoon plans to leave Daejeon this summer when the European soccer summer transfer market begins, and join Brighton. This is similar to Bae Joon-ho, who moved to Stoke City in the English Championship (second division) in the summer of 2023, and Yang Min-hyuk, who moved to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League from Gangwon FC last year.

Brighton, which recruited Yoon Do-young, also reported that he will join the team on July 1, the opening day of the transfer market. The contract period is until June 2030. Local media expected Brighton to sign a four-year contract with Yoon Do-young, but Brighton signed a big five-year contract.

The club also said, "Yoon Do-young will play for another team on loan for the 2025-26 season," adding, "Yoon Do-young will not join Brighton immediately but will be loaned to another team."

Andy Naylor, a member of the global sports media "The Athletic" and familiar with Brighton-related news, predicted that Yoon would sign a four-year contract by setting up a corner to introduce Yoon Do-young, who is about to join Brighton on the 20th of last month.

Naylor said, "Brighton & Hove Albion continues to expand the soccer market as it is about to recruit Korean winger Yoon Do-young. 18-year-old Yoon Do-young is expected to confirm his transfer from Daejeon Hana Citizen to Brighton after the U-20 Asian Cup, which is currently underway in China," adding, "Brighton has added an undisclosed amount of release clause (buyout) in his contract with Yoon Do-young and is expected to sign a four-year contract with Yoon Do-young."

Naylor also explained that Yoon Do-young would follow in Mitoma's footsteps, citing Mitoma as an example.

"The method of recruiting Yoon Do-young may be similar to the method Brighton used in August 2021 to recruit Japanese winger Kaoru Mitoma from Kawasaki Frontale," he said. "Mitoma was 24 years old when he signed with Brighton and spent the 2021-22 season with Union Saint-Zilouaz in Belgium. At that time, Saint-Zilouaz was a club owned by Tony Bloom, Brighton's owner and chairman."

Yoon Do-young also explained that instead of moving to Brighton immediately, he is likely to join Brighton after gaining experience by renting to a place where he can fully experience the European stage and environment like the Belgian league.

According to CBS Sports reporter Ben Jacobs, Brighton has taken out 2 million pounds from his wallet to recruit Yoon. The exchange rate on Tuesday was 3,784.5 billion won (3.7 billion U.S. dollars) compared to the amount paid to a promising player born in 2006 who was playing in the K-League.

Brighton's bold investment in Yoon is due to their policies. Instead of recruiting proven players, Brighton search for prospects who play around the world, recruit them at an appropriate price, and provide them with an opportunity to grow through leases. Players who have had a successful loan life are called to their original team to compete in the Premier League, and those who do not send or release leases again.

Brighton, in particular, is implementing this kind of policy in recruiting strikers' positions, which have a high percentage of promising players. Thanks to this policy, they discovered Mitoma, Yankuba Minte, João Pedru and Facundo Buonanote. This is why Brighton decided to invest in a similar way in Yoon Do-young. 온라인바카라

Yoon Do-young's biggest reason for attracting attention from Brighton and other Premier League clubs is due to his performance in international competitions, but Naylor also said he had the help of Brighton's scouting system and local agents.
