South Korean centre‑back Lee Han‑Beom completed his transfer from FC Midtjylland to Club Brugge in late July 2026 for a €9 million fee, with potential bonuses raising the total to €10.5 million and a 15 percent sell‑on clause. The club offered a two‑ to three‑year contract worth €1.5‑2 million per year. Lee’s arrival coincided with Club Brugge’s opening match of the 2026‑27 season, the Belgian Super Cup against Union Saint‑Gilloise at Jan Breydel Stadium. The game ended 1‑1 after regular time, with Nicolo Tresoldi scoring for Brugge and Kevin Mac Allister equalising for Union. Union won the ensuing penalty shoot‑out 5‑4, thanks to Relebohile Mofokeng’s decisive spot‑kick after Cheveyo Tsawa missed for Brugge. The victory gave Union momentum ahead of a Champions League qualifier and highlighted the impact of recent signings such as Mac Allister and Romanian midfielder Darius Olaru. For Brugge, the loss underscored the immediate challenge of integrating new arrivals, including Lee, into a competitive squad.
