LoL Transfer Window: Khan joins FunPlus Phoenix to play in LPL

Kim "Khan" Dong-ha, the former toplaner of the legendary SKT T1 team, has officially joined the LPL after being recruited by FunPlus Phoenix. However, this did not stop Kim "GimGoon" Han-saem from extending his contract, meaning they will share the toplane.

We are happy to announce that Khan has joined FPX as a top laner. In the meanwhile, we have extended our contract with GimGoon. The S9 Championship Squad will stay together and become stronger! ???#FPX #LPL2020 pic.twitter.com/YJbyCy9aSt

On December 12, FunPlus Phoenix informed us that Kim "Doinb" Tae-sang had gained LPL resident status, which leaves FPX the possibility of having another import in addition to Khan.

Concerning the other roles, Lin "Lwx" Wei-Xiang and Liu "Crisp" Qing-Song are both under contract with FPX until the end of season 11. Being the MVP of the 2019 Worlds, it would be surprising to see Gao "Tian" Tian-Liang leaving FPX, but the League of Legends transfer window has still not come to an end and may still have some surprises in store for us.
