Another Korean Premier League player is about to be born. The protagonist is Lee Kang-in (24, Paris Saint-Germain).

'London World' noted on the 24th that 'Crystal Palace has started to accelerate its recruitment of PSG midfielder Lee Kang-in. The FA Cup champion Palace plans to reinforce its strength by signing Lee Kang-in this summer. Palace's FA Cup victory, which secured a spot in next season's UEFA Europa League, will work to its advantage.'

Palace is based in London and has many advantages, including securing a place in the UEFA Europa League. It is a very attractive team for Lee Kang-in. Unlike PSG, where he has had limited playing time, if Lee Kang-in moves to Palace, he could play as a starter right away.

Oliver Glasner, the Palace manager, said, 'Winning the FA Cup has made us a more attractive team. We have excellent players, but we will recruit more players in the summer transfer market,' indicating his intention to bring in Lee Kang-in.

Currently, the team leading the race for Lee Kang-in's recruitment is Arsenal. Lee Kang-in has been linked with Arsenal since the middle of the season. Reports have surfaced that coach Enrique has been uncomfortable with the rumors of Lee Kang-in's transfer since the Champions League quarter-finals against Arsenal.

ESPN reported, 'PSG forward Lee Kang-in is undergoing consolidation with Arsenal. The 24-year-old Lee Kang-in has reached the Champions League final. His market value is €20 million (approximately 31.7 billion won).'

Various media outlets have reinforced the rumors of Lee Kang-in's transfer to Arsenal. 'The Sun' also reported on Lee Kang-in's transfer rumors, stating, 'Korean national team forward Lee Kang-in has not been able to play sufficiently at PSG. Arsenal's new director, Andrea Berta, is a big fan of Lee Kang-in. He even tried to sign Lee Kang-in from Mallorca during his time at Atletico Madrid in 2023.'
