Hupu, July 30 — Independent reporter Ben Jacobs exclusively reports that FC Midtjylland's South Korean international defender Han-beom Lee will undergo a medical at Club Brugge on Friday. The deal is expected to bring the Danish club nearly 80 million Danish kroner in revenue.
Han-beom Lee to Become Centerpiece of Another Major Transfer
News emerged on Wednesday evening that Club Brugge has reached an agreement with the Danish club for the transfer of the South Korean international. According to transfer reporter Ben Jacobs, the agreed transfer fee is structured as follows:
- Base fee: €9 million (approximately 67.5 million Danish kroner)
- Performance-related bonuses: €1.5 million (over 11 million Danish kroner)
- Total value: Close to 80 million Danish kroner
Additionally, FC Midtjylland (nicknamed "The Wolves of the Wasteland") has secured a 15% sell-on clause. The 24-year-old center-back has only one year remaining on his contract with FC Midtjylland.
Tipsbladet has learned that the deal is nearing completion. Han-beom Lee will undergo a medical at the Belgian club on Friday, though this is contingent on the transfer agreement being formally signed—which has not yet been finalized.
Included in Squad for Beşiktaş Match
Friday comes one day after the crucial second leg of the Europa League qualifier against Beşiktaş, with the Turkish team leading 1-0 from the first leg.
This means Han-beom Lee will be included in the squad one last time before the major transfer is finalized, as he prepares to bid farewell after three years at MCH Arena.
FC Midtjylland signed the center-back from FC Seoul in the summer of 2023 for €1.5 million (approximately 11 million Danish kroner). After playing 66 matches (soon to be 67), he will transfer to Club Brugge for a fee several times higher than the original purchase price.
