You passed as Kim Min-jae's best friend... “I tried to be friendly from the beginning.”

Elmas tried to get closer to Minjae Kim from the beginning.

It seems that Kim Min-jae has already settled well in Naples. In terms of the game, he is already playing a key role in Napoli's defense, and he has become an indispensable player in Napoli. After joining Napoli, Amir Rahmani, who had been showing good chemistry and keeping pace after joining Naples, left with an injury, but Kim Min-jae's performance remains the same. Thanks to the solid defense of Kim Min-jae and others, Napoli is maintaining the top spot in Serie A in Italy as well as 3rd place (10 runs) conceded at least.

He seems to get along well off the field as well. Kim Min-jae became a hot topic when he sang Psy's hit song 'Gangnam Style' from his signing ceremony. Because it was a worldwide hit, his colleagues also responded with a good reaction. Napoli goalkeeper Alex Merrett, as well as other Napoli teammates, reveal that he is close to Kim Min-jae on social media.

Among them, Elmas seems to be the closest player. 무료스포츠중계 Elmas is a player who has many similarities to Kim Min-jae. First of all, the most striking thing is that he is from North Macedonia, where there are not many players compared to other countries. Kim Min-jae is the only South Korean national currently playing in Serie A. In addition, both players have in common that they joined Naples after playing Fenerbahce, a strongman in the Turkiye League.
