Sun Junho, the soul of Taesan's midfield, is about to join the throngs of South Korea's men's World Cup, with his name on the 26-man roster, the Taesan Evening News reports. On the eve of the World Cup battle, he still has a chance to suit up for Taesan in the Chinese Super League for about three to four more matches.
In a close match against Guoan, Sun Junho came on as a substitute in the second half, and his addition immediately gave Taishan control in the midfield, where his defensive and linking roles were crucial. However, Taishan must also prepare for the challenge of Son's absence due to national team commitments. Son Jun-ho is rumored to be on South Korea's 26-man World Cup roster, and he is expected to join the South Korean team's training in early November, with three to four more matches for Taishan before that.
However, Son Jun-ho will be unavailable for CSL matches in the World Cup group stage, and the timing of his return will depend on the performance of the South Korean team. Given the tight schedule of the CSL, Son Joon Ho is expected to miss at least seven rounds of the league in November and December.
Meanwhile, there are other injuries to keep an eye on for the Taysiders. Jadson is unfortunately re-injured after his comeback and is expected to be back at the end of October. As for the local players, Liao Lisheng's road back is full of challenges, while Liu Binbin and Jin Jingdao are working hard on their rehabilitation and they are expected to return in November. Wu Xinghan is also training with the team and his comeback could be at the end of October or November, all depends on his recovery.
