Fan favourite Song returned home to the Sailors in 2024, following stints in Thailand and Indonesia with Nongbua and Persebaya respectively the past year. Known for his superb technical abilities and unwavering commitment on the pitch, he is set to play an integral role in the Sailors’ pursuit for domestic supremacy and continental breakthough this coming campaign.
The South Korean-born attacker played an integral role in the Sailors’ initial rise between 2020 to 2022, as he carved out a reputation for scoring in critical matches. Some of his most notable goals include the opener in a 4-1 win over Balestier Khalsa that secured the club’s first-ever SPL title in 2021, as well as the strike that inspired the Sailors to a historic 3-0 win over Daegu FC in the Asian Football Confederation Champions League (ACL) – the first time a Singaporean club had beaten a K-League outfit.
Now older and much wiser, Song is looking to impart his experience to the younger players embedded in the squad and is ready to push the Sailors to further success in his second spell with the club.
