전훈칠 MBC 기자도 "조현우 선수가 전세계 이목을 잡는 데는 성공했고, 대구 FC(현 소속팀)가 조현우를 잡고 있긴 쉽지 않을 것 같다"며 해외 진출 가능성이 높아졌다고 평가했다.
Jeon Hoon-chil, an MBC reporter, also said, "Cho Hyun-woo has succeeded in catching the world's attention, and it is unlikely that Daegu FC (currently his team) will be able to keep Cho Hyun-woo," evaluating that he is likely to advance abroad.
