“I haven’t seen intensity… not in training either” – Manager critical of Tottenham loanee

KVC Westerlo manager Issame Charaï has criticized Tottenham Hotspur loanee Yang Min-hyeok, stating he has not seen sufficient intensity from the winger in matches or training sessions. The 20-year-old South Korea international joined the Belgian club on a summer loan deal after failing to secure a place under Roberto De Zerbi at Tottenham, having previously experienced spells at Queens Park Rangers, Coventry City, and Portsmouth.

Yang recently scored his first goal for Westerlo in a 5-1 win over Royal Antwerp and made his first start against Patro Eisden, though he was substituted at halftime. While Yang highlighted his natural speed and dribbling ability in an interview, Charaï emphasized that the attacker must significantly develop his work rate to succeed in Belgian football.
