Confusing Quotes Around Hwang Hee-chan’s Future and Potential New Contract<\/h2>\n

Hwang’s Disappointing Season<\/h3>\n

Last season, Hwang scored 12 goals in 29 appearances, but has struggled with inconsistency this campaign, with just five starts and two goals. Hwang has found minutes hard to come by, with Pereira opting for other attacking options such as J\u00f8rgen Strand Larsen and Marshall Munetsi. Despite being one of Wolves’ top scorers in the 23\/24 season, the forward now faces an uncertain future under the current regime, with Pereira stating, “I don’t give gifts.”<\/p>\n

Hwang Hee-chan Says ‘Wolves Is Still My Dream Club’<\/h3>\n

In response to speculation over his future, the Express & Star<\/a> reported that Hwang said, “Of course Wolves is still my dream club”, reaffirming his affection for the club and the city. However, when asked directly about his future, the 29-year-old stopped short of committing, adding only that he is focused on giving his best and “we’ll see what happens.”<\/p>\n

With the summer transfer window due to open on June 16, Hwang could attract interest from clubs across Europe, especially after Wolves rejected a \u00a321 million bid from Marseille<\/a> last summer. Pereira’s stance suggests that the door is open for an exit unless Hwang can force himself back into the team.<\/p>\n

The message is clear: sentiment alone will not be enough to secure a starting place. The “disrespected”<\/a> forward may still be living his dream, but unless something changes, he could be on his way out of the club.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
