Bolton midfielder Lee grateful to Man Utd star Park for support

Exciting Bolton Wanderers winger Chung-Yong Lee credits his form to the support of fellow South Korean Park Ji-sung, the Manchester United midfielder.

Lee admits he grew up idolising his South Korea teammate.

"We have a meal together, talk a lot and play video games together," Lee told the Daily Mail. "Our favourite game is Pro Evolution Soccer. Ji-Sung Park plays Manchester United and I play Bolton. Up to now, he has won a lot!

"I always wanted to be like him and play in the Premier League, so it's a privilege to be around him. He gives me bits of advice and has also told me where all the best Korean shops are in Manchester."
