Na Sang-ho (Korean: 나상호; born 12 August 1996) is a South Korean professionalfootballer who plays as awinger forJ1 League clubMachida Zelvia and theSouth Korea national team.
In 2015, Na graduated from Kumho High School, which had a youth football club ofK League clubGwangju FC, and then enteredDankook University's football team. After playing for Dankook University for two years, in 2017, Na returned to Gwangju FC, joining their senior team. He experienced relegation in his first professional season, but became the Most Valuable Player and the top goalscorer at theK League 2 the next year.[1]
Prior to the 2019 season, he joinedJ1 League clubFC Tokyo.[2] In the first half of the season, he played as a substitute, playing for 339 minutes in 13 matches.[3] He was expected to become one of main players after teammateTakefusa Kubo left for Spain in June,[3] but his status at Tokyo was not improved until the end of the season.
On 8 June 2020, he was loaned toK League 1 clubSeongnam FC. He joined Seongnam in the middle of the season, but became the club's top scorer. He performed a key role in avoiding Seongnam's relegation.[4]
Since 2021, Na joined another K League 1 clubFC Seoul, playing as a main winger for them. He captained the club since the second half of the2022 season,[5] and received the K League Player of the Month award twice during the2023 season.[6] However, he failed to lead his team to the top six at the league for three years, and had to face Seoul fans' criticisms along with his teammates.[7]
On 4 January 2024, Na joined newly-promotedJ1 League clubMachida Zelvia on a permanent deal.[8][9] On 22 November 2025, he came on as a 65th-minute substitute in the2025 Emperor's Cup final againstVissel Kobe, and defended the club's 3–1 lead until the end of the match.[10]
Na won a gold medal with theSouth Korea under-23 national team at the2018 Asian Games.[11]
After becoming a gold medalist at the Asian Games, Na started to be used at thesenior national team under managerPaulo Bento. He scored his first senior international goal in aWorld Cup qualifier againstTurkmenistan on 10 September 2019,[12] and won the2019 EAFF E-1 Football Championship.[13] He could not participate at the2019 AFC Asian Cup due to an injury,[14] but left good impressions at the national team in 2019.[15]
However, Na underperformed in matches prior to the2022 FIFA World Cup, bringing Korean fans anxieties. Bento called him up for the tournament, trusting him continuously despite the criticisms. He showed energetic movements againstUruguay andGhana, getting a good press at the tournament.[16][17]
