South Korea's football association (KFA) dropped Lee Sang-min from their Asian Games squad on Tuesday and apologised for picking the defender who is ineligible due to a drunk driving conviction.
Lee, 23, was caught driving under the influence in May 2020 and fined 5 million won on Aug. 5 that year.
Under KFA regulations, any player who has been fined at least 5 million won for such an offence cannot be eligible for selection for a minimum of three years. Lee's ineligibility period ends only next month. "The KFA humbly acknowledges that in the selection process for the Asian Games national team players announced on 14th, they selected players who did not conform to the national football team operating regulations," it said in a statement.
" will do our best to prevent similar situations from recurring through future administrative system maintenance."South Korea are looking to win a third straight football gold medal at the Asian Games in Hangzhou, China, which were postponed from last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.Reporting by Rohith Nair in Bengaluru; Editing by Peter Rutherford
