August 12th news, according to the official website of FIFA, the membership of 22-year-old Mönchengladbach Castrop has been changed from Germany to South Korea, and he will represent the Korean men's football team.

Castrop is a German-Korean mixed race, with a Korean mother, 1.78 meters tall, playing in the midfield, and can play as a full-back, central defender and other positions. He will transfer to Bundesliga powerhouse Borussia Mönchengladbach this summer. Currently, Germany's turnover price is 6 million euros.
