However, Hwang’s goal is to go one step further and score at least 10 goals this season. Double-digit scoring in one season was one of the biggest goals he has revealed since summer 2019, when he was confirmed to advance to Europe.
Hwang Eui-jo represented the Bordeaux squad at the official press conference held on the 30th of the month ahead of the Olympic Lyon expedition. He told a press conference that day, “I pledged to score more than 10 goals as a personal goal from the beginning of the season. I know that this is not an easy goal, but I will do everything to achieve this goal” .

Following that, Hwang Eui-jo said, “I think I have developed tactically and defensively after moving to Bordeaux.” At the moment, I’m trying to get my maximum. I’m happy with the two goals against Angers, but the most important thing is the team.
Hwang Eui-jo said, “We are playing more systematically,” regarding the team that has been undefeated in the last 4 games and has a 3 consecutive win streak. “If the whole team plays a lot, there are more opportunities in the front line. “But I’m ready to play where the manager wants. I focus on improving efficiency during training.”
Bordeaux recently climbed to the 7th place in the League 1. Currently, Bordeaux is pursuing AS Monaco, which is ranked 4th, given the right to advance to the European Football Federation (UEFA) Europa League next season, with 7 points. Lyon, who is given third place in the Champions League, is ahead of Bordeaux by 11 points. However, if Bordeaux wins the next match against Lyon, he could narrow the gap to eight points.
