Biography
Eom Ji-sung (Korean: 엄지성; born 9 May 2002) is a South Korean footballer currently playing as a winger for EFL Championship club Swansea City and the South Korea national team.
Club career In 2021, Eom joined the senior team of K League 1 club Gwangju FC. He experienced relegation in his first professional season, but helped Gwangju win the K League 2 the next year. After his contribution to the club's promotion was acknowledged, he was selected for the league's Best XI as well as the Young Player of the Year Award. On 15 July 2024, Eom signed for EFL Championship club Swansea City on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee, reported to be in the region of £1 million by local media. On 8 March 2025, he scored his first goal for the club against Middlesbrough. After his first season at Swansea City, he confessed his performances during the season did not satisfy himself and he had difficulty adapting to a large gap between the level of EFL Championship and K League. But he said he gradually felt his improvement and was finally motivated at the Championship.
