With back-to-back UEFA Champions League titles secured, Paris Saint-Germain is gearing up for a high-stakes summer transfer window. While the club focuses on reinforcements, some players may be heading for the exit. Among them, South Korean forward Kang-In Lee could be set to leave the Rouge-et-Bleu after three seasons in the French capital. At 25, he is reportedly seeking a fresh challenge and could be on the move.
Atlético Madrid eyes Kang-In Lee for tactical and commercial appeal
The Atlético Madrid has reportedly set its sights on Kang-In Lee, with manager Diego Simeone drawn to the player’s versatility. The South Korean can operate as a second striker or on either wing, adding tactical depth to the Colchoneros’ lineup. While Atlético has been monitoring the PSG squad for some time, the club’s interest now extends beyond footballing needs. Given Lee’s immense popularity in his home country, his transfer could unlock lucrative commercial opportunities in Asia, making him a valuable asset off the pitch as well.
Paris Saint-Germain sets firm price for departure
All eyes are now on Atlético Madrid to see if they can meet the asking price. The French champions are believed to be holding firm at around €25 million for Kang-In Lee, a figure that reflects both his playing ability and commercial appeal. Reports suggest the player himself would not stand in the way of a move to the Spanish capital this summer. The coming weeks will reveal whether the two clubs can finalize an agreement.
