There is no place for Lee Kang-in (24, PSG) in the Champions League champion Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
PSG will face Atletico Madrid in the group stage match of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 on the morning of the 16th at 4 a.m. (Korea time) at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California.
This tournament is significant for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), which is a Champions League champion and a quadruple winner. However, the opponent is formidable.
Lee Kang-in has been excluded from PSG's lineup. In the predicted starting lineup by "Footmob," Lee Kang-in's name was absent. Lee Kang-in will be on the bench, but chances of play are expected to be difficult.
"Footmob" predicted, "PSG's attack is in top form. Ousmane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, and Desire Doué are sharp. This is the lineup that manager Luis Enrique prefers. Atletico will face Antoine Griezmann and Julian Alvarez." Lee Kang-in's name was not mentioned at all.
Atletico Madrid, a strong team in La Liga, is expected to struggle with PSG's attacking power. "Footmob" predicted, "Dembele is a key player. He is in the best form of his career. PSG will win 2-1."
Lee Kang-in finds himself in a situation where he cannot laugh, despite PSG's success. As he continues to be excluded from the lineup, transfer rumors are persistent.
On the 10th, French "Sports Zone" reported, "Saudi Pro League Al Nassr has begun negotiations to acquire PSG and South Korean national team attacking midfielder Lee Kang-in. Lee Kang-in transferred from La Liga's Mallorca to Ligue 1 champion PSG two years ago. PSG acquired Lee Kang-in to infuse youth and creativity into the team following Neymar's transfer."
Serie A champion Napoli, along with Premier League teams Arsenal, Newcastle, and Crystal Palace, are continuously showing interest in Lee Kang-in. The less Lee Kang-in plays at PSG, the greater the likelihood of a transfer.
