Ki, only 19, was linked, rather tenuously last year, to current European title-holders Manchester United, and, more recently and solidly, to past continental champions Porto and Hamburg.

Ki, an all action midfielder and likened in Korea to England star Steven Gerrard, has been linked to Manchester United, Hamburg and Porto but is being patient.
"I still have a lot to learn in the K-league to improve my strengths and erase my weaknesses,'' Ki told Korean media. "I want to play in Europe but now is not yet the time.''
The teenager has scored twice in four appearances for the national team, with his debut goal coming in September's 2010 World Cup qualifier with North Korea.
That goal perhaps saved the job of coach Huh Jung-moo who paid tribute to the youngster. "His creativity, passing skills and vision make him a very good midfielder. He is an all-round player,'' Huh told Korean media.

Cheers for your translation! As you'll have probably guessed, my Korean ain't up to scratch... though, it still sounded like that, eh! ;-) Looking forward to seeing Ki S-Y wearing the Hoops in the new year, we'll take good care of the bhoy over here in Glasgow, no worries! All the best from the West (thumbs up smiley) ps What is the Korean translation for the following well known phrase used by Glasgow Celtic supporters: If you hate the fucking Rangers clap your hands? ;-D
