2024-25 PREMIER LEAGUE SEASON TO END WITH A KOREAN DERBY

The 2024-25 Premier League season will end with a Korean derby, although not one
involving veteran midfielder and the inimitable face of Korean football Son
Heung-min.
 
Instead, it will be Wolverhampton Wanderers, home of midfielder Hwang Hee-chan,
that host west London club Brentford on May 25, the final day of the 2024-25
campaign. Brentford recently promoted young Korean defender Kim Ji-soo to the
club’s first team.

The Wolves-Brentford clash will cap off a season that should see at least six
Korean derbies — two each between Wolves-Spurs, Spurs-Brentford and
Wolves-Brentford.
 
Spurs will host Brentford in the first Korean derby on Sept. 21, with Wolves
then traveling to west London to take on the Bees on Oct. 5.
 
Son and Hwang will have their first clash of the season on Dec. 29 at Tottenham
Hotspur Stadium in London, before the north London club head across town to take
on Brentford on Feb. 1.
 
Wolves and Spurs will face off again in the midlands on April 12, with the
Wolves-Brentford match capping off the Korean-on-Korean schedule for the season.
 
Outside of the all-out Korean fixtures, Wolves will start their season on Aug.
17 on the road in London as they face the tough challenge of taking on Arsenal
at the Emirates on opening day.  
 
Brentford start their season a day later on Aug. 18 at home against Crystal
Palace, while Spurs head to Leicester for the final game of opening weekend on
the evening of Aug. 19.
 
More Korean players could still be added to the mix when the transfer window
opens next month.
 
Hwang In-beom, perhaps the unluckiest man in Korean football, could be about to
turn a corner in his career as he has reportedly been linked to both Wolves and
Crystal Palace.

Hwang Ui-jo, meanwhile, is set to return from loan in Turkey to rejoin
Nottingham Forest over the summer, although whether the club will actually have
a place for him remains unclear. Hwang, who has been through a tumultuous couple
of years, has not made an appearance for Forest since joining the club two years
ago.
 
Son, Hwang Hee-chan and Kim are all expected to return to their Premier League
clubs in the next couple of weeks as pre-season training slowly kicks off at the
end of the month, although without any players active in the Euros or Copa
America.
 
Prior to the 2024-25 campaign, Spurs are headed to Asia where they face Vissel
Kobe in Tokyo on July 27 before playing Team K League on July 31 and Bayern
Munich on Aug. 3, both in Seoul.
 
Wolves head further west for the Stateside Cup, facing West Ham, Crystal Palace
and RB Leipzig in a series of fixtures up the west coast of the United States.
 
Brentford are staying in Europe this year, spending some time in Portugal at the
end of July where they will face Primeira Liga clubs Benfica and Estrela da
Amadora, before returning home to play Championship side Watford and host
Bundesliga club Wolfsburg.
