Having arrived at the summer mercato in July 2023 from Mallorca, Lee Kang-In, the 23-year-old Korean midfielder, is under contract at Paris Saint-Germain until June 2028, and is playing more in the 2024-2025 season than in his irregular first season. But that’s not quite convincing everyone, which is why rumors are swirling around the mercato. This Friday, L’Equipe takes stock of the situation.
“He’s in the classic situation of a player who wants to play more, especially in big matches. The team is winning, so the former Valencian says nothing. The two parties will take stock at the end of the season, but Paris had already rejected Arsenal’s approach.
If the club doesn’t open the door to a transfer, Lee will stay, with his contract running until 2028, otherwise the attacking midfielder will see what’s on offer. From PSG’s point of view: the door is open to a sale, but not at any price.”
A bit of vagueness and therefore a lot of caution. Lee seems to be one of the players who could leave PSG this summer, but there’s nothing to suggest he’s being pushed out. His return from injury has been interesting, with a promising role in midfield.
But of course, if a significant offer comes in, it may be considered. As you’d expect, this applies to many players. The wisest thing to do is to wait for some concrete information before the start of the season. Which, for PSG, won’t be until the end of the Champions League. On May 31, we hope.
