KUALA LUMPUR – Former Harimau Malaya head coach Kim Pan-gon has been appointed as the head coach of South Korean top-flight club Ulsan HD FC.
The reigning K1 League champions announced the development in a post on their official Facebook page today.
“For the first time in the K-league, I am an official manager. Tension and expectations go hand in hand.
“I feel like I have come back from a long way, but I want to show Korean football fans a much more mature performance,” Pan-gon said in the post.
Pan-gon officially resigned as Malaysia head coach on July 16 after two years and four months of leading the national team.
The South Korean coach decided to leave the team for personal reasons.
Pan-gon highlighted that during his tenure he had achieved many successes and felt fulfilled by leading the Harimau Malaya to various accomplishments. – July 28, 2024
