Ahn Set For Madrid According to the South Korean press, Ahn Jung-hwan is set to join Atletico Madrid.
If the stories are true, Ahn will join the Spanish outfit next week after completing a medical and will sign a one-year contract. The club will pay 750,000 Euros to the 30 year-old’s former club MSV Duisberg.
Madrid, who finished tenth last season, are sponsored by South Korean car maker Kia Motors and it is thought that the club has asked the company to pay part of Ahn’s salary.
The striker, who scored his 17th goal for the national team in the midweek win in Taiwan, has been waiting for a move to one of Europe’s biggest leagues all summer.
The player's agent told Chosun Ilbo that Ajax and Japanese team Nagoya Grampus Eight had also expressed interest in Ahn but there had been no offers from England.
