Iyutsenko's interest in Chinese clubs. According to local media reports, the Chinese clubs interested in him were Shandong Taishan and Shanghai Harbor, and Iyutsenko himself was satisfied with the terms offered by Shandong. However, ten days have passed since then and so far there has been no update on Iyutsenko's transfer.
Jeonbuk's contract with Iyuchenko runs through December of this year. For Jeonbuk, they can get a transfer fee if Iyuchenko leaves the team, but Iyuchenko plays an active role in Jeonbuk's attacking end, especially with the current poor form of the team, and losing him could have a relatively big impact on Jeonbuk's performance.
Earlier, Sports Weekly reported that Iyutsenko was recommended to the team by Sun Junhao, who plays for Shandong, and that Iyutsenko himself had expressed his desire to go to the

The team's willingness to play soccer. However, negotiations between Shandong and Jeonbuk have not been smooth, and Shandong is currently looking for a workaround to facilitate the transfer.
Iyotsenko landed in the K-League in 2019. The 5'89" tall man scored 9 goals in his debut season in the K-League before scoring 19 goals in the 2020 season to finish among the league's top scorers. He moved to Jeonbuk last season, scoring 15 goals that season and playing a decisive role in helping the team win the league title.
