Son, who insisted on his innocence, received another devastating news.
He was permanently expelled from the Chinese Professional Football Association.
Shall we look back on what happened to Son Jun-ho?
Son, who played for Shandong Taishan, a Chinese professional soccer team, was arrested by public security while trying to return to Korea from Shanghai, China, in May last year.
The charges are "the crime of accepting non-state workers."
He was paid to rig the match.
Son, who has been under investigation after being detained for as many as 10 months, will be released in March this year and returned to Korea.
In June, he wore the K League 1's Suwon FC uniform, and last month, he even scored a comeback goal and was expected to return to the national team,
Just yesterday, he was permanently expelled by the Chinese Football Association.
Since it's a disciplinary action by the Chinese Football Association, you might think that it's only necessary not to play in China, but some predict that it could be fatal to the player's life.
For now, it's only applicable in China, but I don't think the Chinese Football Association will end this problem on its own. If you post it as FIFA, a higher-level organization, it's under the influence of FIFA that plays all football in the world, including Korea. So if it is reported to FIFA, Son Jun-ho will not be able to play soccer anywhere, including Korea.
Son Joon-ho, who expressed his "absurd" position after the Chinese Football Association's decision came out.
We will hold a press conference on this in a little while to clarify our position.
