Park Chu-young (Korean: 박주영; Hanja: 朴主永; Korean pronunciation: [pak̚.t͈ɕu.jʌŋ]; also romanised as Park Ju-young; born 10 July 1985) is a South Korean retired footballer who played as a forward.[3]

Early life

Park was born and raised in Daegu. He began playing organized football in fourth grade after the local coach convinced Park's parents.[4] He later attended Cheonggu Middle School and Cheonggu High School.[5]

In March 2001, during his first year at Cheonggu High, Park began a one-year training spell in Brazil at the Zico Football Center, funded by Pohang Steelers as part of the club's program for promising young players.[6] He credited the spell with teaching him to play the ball economically, without unnecessary exertion.[7] At Cheonggu, coach Byun Byung-joo moved Park from a wide attacking role in his first year to midfield in his second and centre-forward in his third.[8] By the end of his high-school career, Park had scored 47 goals in 33 matches and won the scoring title at four national tournaments. He was also the only high-school player chosen for South Korea's squad at the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship; although he did not play, he was its youngest South Korean squad member.[9]

Park entered Korea University in 2004. In his first year he scored 10 goals as Korea University won a national university tournament, finishing as the competition's top scorer.[10] Later that year, he scored six goals—including both goals in the final against China—as South Korea won the 2004 AFC Youth Championship; he received both the tournament's top-scorer and most valuable player awards and was subsequently named the AFC Youth Player of the Year.[11][12] His reputation grew further at an eight-nation under-20 tournament in Qatar in January 2005, where he recorded nine goals and one assist in four appearances as South Korea won the title, and again received the top-scorer and most valuable player awards. Korean media labelled him a "football genius", while the surge of public interest became known as the "Park Chu-young syndrome"; amid the attention, the Korea Football Association announced that it would form what contemporary reporting described as its first management committee devoted to a single player.[13]

Club career

FC Seoul

On 28 February 2005, after one season at Korea University, Park signed a three-year contract with FC Seoul. Under regulations introduced for the 2005 season, he received no signing bonus and was paid the maximum rookie salary of ₩50 million in his first year. His contract allowed him to pursue a move to Europe during the season and provided for him to receive a share of any transfer fee; Park said he chose Seoul because he regarded the club as the quickest route towards his ambition of playing in Europe.[14]

The move led to a dispute with Pohang Steelers, which had financed Park's year at the Zico Football Center in Brazil. Pohang said that its agreement with Park required him to negotiate with the club first if he entered the K League and to reimburse the training costs if he joined another team. After he signed for Seoul without such negotiations, Pohang announced that it would seek approximately ₩50 million from him.[15] Seoul said it had been unaware of the agreement, maintained that it did not oblige Park to join Pohang, and treated reimbursement as a matter between Park and Pohang.[16]

Park made his professional debut as a half-time substitute in a 1–0 League Cup defeat by Daegu FC on 9 March, watched by approximately 25,000 spectators.[17] Four days later, he scored his first professional goal in a 2–1 defeat by Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma.[18] On 18 May, he scored his first professional hat-trick—from a direct free kick, a header and a penalty—in a 5–3 loss to Gwangju Sangmu. Aged 19 years and 10 months, he became the youngest player to score a K League hat-trick at the time.[19] On his twentieth birthday, 10 July, he scored another hat-trick in a 4–1 victory over Pohang before 48,375 spectators, then a K League single-match attendance record.[20]

Across the league and League Cup, Park finished his debut season with 18 goals and four assists in 30 appearances.[21] His popularity generated what the press called the "Park Chu-young syndrome": Seoul's average attendance increased from 12,418 in 2004 to a league-leading 25,478 in 2005, while other clubs promoted Seoul's visits around his appearances.[22] Seoul nevertheless missed the playoffs. Park received all 73 votes in the press ballot for Rookie of the Year, becoming the first unanimous winner in league history, and was selected for the K League Best XI.[23]

In 2006, Park scored ten goals in 32 appearances in all competitions but lost his regular starting place amid what Korean coverage described as a "second-year slump."[24][25] After returning from the 2006 FIFA World Cup, he scored the winner against Incheon United on 22 July, taking Seoul to within one point of the League Cup title.[26] Seoul secured the trophy four days later, its first title since 2000.[27]

Under new manager Şenol Güneş, Park began 2007 by scoring a hat-trick in a 4–1 League Cup victory over Suwon Samsung Bluewings on 21 March.[28] A recurring injury to his left foot then sidelined him from late May until September, and he finished the season with five goals in 15 appearances.[29][30] He recorded two goals and four assists in 17 league and League Cup appearances in 2008 before Monaco submitted a formal offer at the end of August. Seoul agreed to facilitate his departure despite losing one of its leading players during the season.[31][32]

Monaco

On 1 September 2008, Park joined Monaco on a four-year contract for a reported €2 million transfer fee and was given the number 10 shirt.[33] He made his Ligue 1 debut against Lorient on 13 September, scoring the opening goal and assisting Frédéric Nimani in a 2–0 victory.[34] Park immediately became a regular and finished his first season in France with five goals in 31 league appearances.[35]

Park's scoring output increased under new manager Guy Lacombe in 2009–10. Monaco generally deployed him as the lone centre-forward in a 4–2–3–1 formation, with players including Nenê operating behind him; contemporary analysis credited the system with making better use of Park's movement and combination play.[36] In October 2009, Monaco extended his contract by one year, through June 2013.[37]

On 24 January 2010, Park headed the winning goal in a 2–1 victory over Lyon in the round of 32 of the 2009–10 Coupe de France.[38] Six days later, he scored twice in a 3–2 league victory over local rivals Nice, his first multi-goal match in France. The goals raised his season totals to eight in the league and nine in all competitions.[39] A right-thigh injury sustained during a Coupe de France victory over Bordeaux in February subsequently sidelined him for nearly a month.[40] Park returned and played the full 120 minutes as Monaco lost the Coupe de France final 1–0 after extra time to Paris Saint-Germain on 1 May.[41] He aggravated the thigh injury during the final and missed the remainder of the season, which he ended with eight league goals and one goal in the Coupe de France.[42]

Park's final season at Monaco was his most productive in France. On 22 December 2010, he scored a stoppage-time winner in a 2–1 victory over Sochaux. During his customary kneeling prayer celebration, his teammates piled onto him and he damaged cartilage in his right knee. The injury sidelined him for approximately a month and forced him to withdraw from the 2011 AFC Asian Cup.[43]

After returning, Park reached ten league goals with a volley against Arles-Avignon on 2 April 2011.[44] The following week, he scored the only goal in a surprise victory over league leaders Lille, temporarily lifting Monaco out of the relegation zone.[45] He finished the season with 12 goals in 33 league appearances, becoming the first South Korean to score 12 goals in a Ligue 1 season.[46] Monaco nevertheless finished 18th and were relegated following a 2–0 final-day defeat by Lyon, ending their 34-season stay in the top flight.[47] Park subsequently stated that he wanted to join a stronger club capable of competing in European competition.[48] Across his three seasons at Monaco, he scored 25 goals in 91 Ligue 1 appearances.[49]

Arsenal

Park Chu-young at Arsenal

On 30 August 2011, Park joined English Premier League club Arsenal for a reported fee of between £3 million and £5 million and was assigned the number 9 shirt. Park had already agreed terms and begun a medical with French champions Lille, but did not return for its second part after Arsenal made a late approach. Lille president Michel Seydoux said that the club had received no notice of Park's change of plans.[50]

Park made his Arsenal debut by starting a 3–1 League Cup victory over Shrewsbury Town on 20 September. In his second appearance, on 25 October, he curled Andrey Arshavin's pass into the far corner to score the winning goal in a 2–1 League Cup victory over Bolton Wanderers. Manager Arsène Wenger praised Park's movement and finishing and said that he was ready to play in the league.[51]

On 1 November, Park made his UEFA Champions League debut by starting a goalless draw with Marseille, before being replaced by Robin van Persie after 62 minutes.[52] He nevertheless remained a peripheral member of the squad. Wenger acknowledged in December that he had not given Park sufficient opportunities, while also saying that some players required time to adjust to the intensity and physical demands of English football.[53] Park's only Premier League appearance came as a late substitute in a 2–1 home defeat by Manchester United on 22 January 2012.[54] He finished his first season with one goal in six appearances across all competitions.[55]

Loan to Celta Vigo

On 31 August 2012, following the arrivals of forwards Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud, Park joined newly promoted Spanish club Celta Vigo on a season-long loan.[56] He made his La Liga debut as a substitute in a 2–1 defeat by Valencia on 15 September.[57] On his home debut a week later, Park entered against Getafe in the 66th minute and scored the winning goal with his first touch two minutes later, volleying in a cross from Michael Krohn-Dehli. The goal, which gave Celta a 2–1 victory, made him the first South Korean to score in La Liga.[58]

Park subsequently scored league goals against Mallorca and Deportivo de La Coruña and a Copa del Rey goal against Almería. His header against Almería opened the scoring in a 3–0 extra-time victory which overturned a two-goal first-leg deficit.[59] He did not establish himself as a regular under either Paco Herrera or Abel Resino, starting 12 of his 26 appearances in all competitions and scoring four goals.[60] In May 2013, Celta announced that an MRI had revealed a small fracture in his right foot, causing him to miss the closing stages of the season.[61]

Return to Arsenal and loan to Watford

After returning to Arsenal, Park's only appearance of the 2013–14 season came as a substitute in a 2–0 League Cup defeat by Chelsea on 29 October 2013. It proved to be his final appearance for Arsenal.[62]

On 31 January 2014, Park joined Championship club Watford on loan for the remainder of the season.[63] He made his debut as a stoppage-time substitute in a 2–0 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion on 2 February.[64] His only start came in a 2–0 defeat by Bolton Wanderers on 22 February.[65] A condition affecting his right foot subsequently curtailed the loan spell. Park returned to South Korea in early April and, with the approval of Watford's and Arsenal's medical staffs, remained there to rehabilitate, having made two appearances for Watford without scoring.[66]

Arsenal announced in June 2014 that Park would leave when his contract expired on 30 June. He finished his Arsenal career with seven first-team appearances across all competitions, including one in the Premier League, and one goal.[67]

Al-Shabab

Despite his intention to stay in Europe after being released by Arsenal,[68] Park joined Saudi Arabian side Al-Shabab on 1 October 2014, signing a one-year contract.[69] Park scored on his debut, in a 1–0 victory against Al-Hilal on 17 October 2014.[70]

Return to FC Seoul

Park returned to FC Seoul on 10 March 2015.[71][72] On 6 November 2016, he scored the only goal for FC Seoul in a 1–0 away victory against Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors in the final round of the season, helping his team to win the 2016 K League 1.[73]

International career

Youth and Olympic teams

Park was the youngest member and only high-school player in South Korea's squad for the 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship, but did not appear at the tournament.[74] The following year, he scored six goals at the 2004 AFC Youth Championship, including both goals in the 2–0 final victory over China, as South Korea won the title; he finished as the tournament's top scorer and most valuable player.[75] At the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship, Park missed a penalty and dislocated his left elbow against Nigeria but continued playing. He equalised with a 23-metre free kick in the 89th minute, before his stoppage-time shot was parried to Baek Ji-hoon, who scored the winner in a 2–1 comeback victory. South Korea nevertheless went out in the group stage after losing their final match to Brazil.[76][77]

Park scored twice in South Korea's opening match of the 2006 Asian Games, a 3–0 win over Bangladesh, but did not score again as the team finished fourth.[78] At the 2008 Summer Olympics, his direct free kick put South Korea ahead against Cameroon in their opening match, which ended 1–1.[79] South Korea later beat Honduras but were eliminated in the group stage.[80]

Manager Hong Myung-bo selected Park as one of two over-age players for the 2010 Asian Games.[81] Park scored four goals in the tournament, including an extra-time winner against Uzbekistan in the quarter-finals. After South Korea lost 1–0 to the United Arab Emirates with the final kick of extra time in the semi-finals, he scored to begin a late comeback from 3–1 down against Iran; two subsequent goals by Ji Dong-won completed a 4–3 victory and secured the bronze medal.[82]

Park's selection as an over-age player for the 2012 Summer Olympics was preceded by a national controversy over his military service. A ten-year Monaco residence permit had enabled him to obtain a lawful deferment of conscription until the end of 2022, but its disclosure in March 2012 prompted criticism that maintaining the arrangement could allow him to avoid active service.[83] After being omitted from the senior team's June World Cup qualifiers, Park apologised for delaying a public explanation, denied intending to evade his obligation and promised to serve. Hong appeared alongside him at the press conference and subsequently selected him despite both the controversy and his lack of playing time at Arsenal.[84][85]

At the Olympics, Park headed the opening goal in a 2–1 group-stage win over Switzerland.[86] In the bronze-medal match against Japan, he collected a long clearance near the halfway line, evaded several defenders and scored the opener in a 2–0 victory, giving South Korea its first Olympic football medal.[87] The medal qualified Park for South Korea's sports-personnel alternative-service programme in place of ordinary active-duty conscription; he entered a four-week basic military-training course in 2013.[88]

Senior national team

National-team manager Jo Bonfrère initially resisted calls to promote Park, questioning whether his slight build was ready for senior football and reportedly saying that he appeared light enough to be blown away by the wind. Park's form after joining FC Seoul changed Bonfrère's view, and he selected him for two decisive World Cup qualifiers in June 2005.[89][90] On 3 June, Park started on the left wing against Uzbekistan and scored a stoppage-time equaliser in a 1–1 draw on his senior debut. Five days later, he opened the scoring and won a penalty in a 4–0 victory over Kuwait that secured South Korea's sixth consecutive World Cup appearance.[91]

Park was selected for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, but appeared only in the final group match against Switzerland. He started and was replaced in the 66th minute as South Korea lost 2–0 and were eliminated.[92] Recurring foot trouble and reduced club form contributed to his omission from the 2007 AFC Asian Cup, and he did not play a senior international that year.[93] Recalled by Huh Jung-moo in 2008, Park scored twice in a 3–2 victory over China as South Korea won the 2008 East Asian Football Championship; he shared the tournament's top-scorer award.[94] He then scored four goals during South Korea's unbeaten qualification campaign for the 2010 World Cup, establishing himself as the team's first-choice centre-forward.[95]

Park started all four of South Korea's matches at the 2010 FIFA World Cup. In the second group match, Lionel Messi's free kick deflected off his leg for an own goal as Argentina won 4–1.[96] In the decisive final group match against Nigeria, he curled a direct free kick inside the far post to give South Korea a 2–1 lead. The match finished 2–2, sending the country to the World Cup knockout stage for the first time outside South Korea.[97] His fifth-minute free kick struck the post in the round of 16 against Uruguay, who won 2–1.[98]

A right-knee cartilage injury suffered while celebrating a stoppage-time winner for Monaco ruled Park out of the 2011 AFC Asian Cup, his second successive absence from the tournament.[99] After Park Ji-sung retired from international football, coach Cho Kwang-rae appointed Park Chu-young as the new captain in February 2011.[100] He scored eight recognised goals in nine internationals that year, including a hat-trick against Lebanon and six goals in South Korea's first four third-round qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup. Park also scored both Korean goals in a 2–2 friendly against Poland, but the Korea Football Association excluded the match and goals from its official A-international records because South Korea used seven substitutes, one more than the FIFA limit.[101]

Park's lack of club football subsequently reduced his role in the senior team. Hong recalled him after thirteen months for a March 2014 friendly against Greece, acknowledging that the decision departed from his normal selection criterion.[102] Park scored the opening goal in a 2–0 win.[103] Hong then selected him for the 2014 FIFA World Cup despite his continued shortage of club appearances, citing Park's experience and the absence of a satisfactory replacement.[104]

Park started against Russia and Algeria but managed only one shot, none on target, in approximately 114 minutes.[105] A thumbs-up to Lee Chung-yong after failing to reach his pass in the Russia match became the subject of an online meme that summarised Park's performance as "zero goals, zero assists, zero shots, one thumbs-up".[106] Hong left him on the bench for the final group match against Belgium, and South Korea finished last in their group.[107] Park returned for friendlies against Jordan and Iran that November, with the Iran defeat becoming his 68th and final senior international; he finished with 24 goals.[108][109]

Style of play

Park was a mobile and technically skilled forward who played primarily as a centre-forward, but could also operate behind another striker, as an attacking midfielder or as a wide forward. A 2005 tactical analysis attributed his versatility to his dribbling, shooting and passing, while regarding centre-forward as the role that best exploited his movement and goalscoring ability; his movement could also draw defenders away and create space for teammates.[110] Arsène Wenger later praised Park's technical quality, mobility and aerial ability, describing him as adaptable enough either to lead the attack or play behind another striker. Former South Korea assistant coach Afshin Ghotbi identified Park's instinctive positioning and final touch as trademarks.[111][112]

Park was noted for his first touch, short bursts of acceleration and ability to release shots quickly.[113] Despite standing 1.82 m (6 ft 0 in), he was effective in the air; World Soccer reported that an FC Seoul test measured his vertical jump at 91 cm (36 in), compared with a squad average of 62.6 cm (24.6 in).[114]

He was also a specialist right-footed free-kick taker. Sports Illustrated reported before the 2010 FIFA World Cup that Park took most of South Korea's free kicks, and he later served as FC Seoul's principal free-kick and corner taker.[115] Rather than relying primarily on power, he varied curling direct attempts with indirect deliveries and rehearsed routines.[116]

Personal life

Park is a devout Christian. He has described football as a means of sharing his faith and was known for writing "Jesus Christ" alongside his autograph.[117] His signature goal celebration was to drop to both knees, interlock his fingers and pray.

Park maintained a guarded relationship with the Korean sports media and frequently declined post-match interviews. A 2015 Yonhap retrospective described a decade-long estrangement and quoted an FC Seoul official who said that it began amid the intense coverage of Park's 2005 breakthrough, when he believed some remarks had been reported differently from their intended meaning.[118] In 2014, Park denied disliking journalists personally, explaining that he believed players should let their training and performances speak for them.[119] Yonhap contrasted his reserved public manner with his reputation among teammates as friendly, warm-hearted and dryly humorous.[120]

Park married his longtime partner, whom he met while studying at Korea University, in a private ceremony in June 2011.[121]
