Lee Kang-in (24, Paris Saint-Germain) is on the fast track to Napoli.
The Italian 'Corriere dello Sport' reported on the 8th, 'There is a possibility that Lee Kang-in could swap places with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. PSG has been persistently demanding Lee from Napoli.'
Coincidentally, after Kvaratskhelia joined PSG, Lee's position has been shaken. Kvaratskhelia had previously collaborated with Kim Min-jae to win during his time at Napoli. He transferred to PSG for a transfer fee of €80 million in January. Having secured a starting position quickly at a big club, he played a crucial role in PSG's treble. He also had an impressive performance in the Champions League final.
'Corriere dello Sport' added, 'Despite Lee scoring 6 goals and providing 6 assists last season, he was relegated to the bench after Kvaratskhelia's arrival. Napoli has devised a plan to take Lee to Napoli taking advantage of this situation.'
Currently, Lee's market value is reported to be €40 million. It is said that it is possible for PSG and Napoli to either loan Lee or reduce his transfer fee through negotiations.
Lee has joined the national team after finishing the Champions League victory. While PSG achieved the treble, Lee did not play a single second in crucial matches.
