Napoli ask PSG for Kang-in Lee after Kvaratskhelia deal | OneFootball

Napoli are looking to Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain for reinforcements, as Kang-in Lee could end up swapping places with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.

The arrival of Kvaratskhelia in Paris during the January transfer window for circa €80m proved pivotal in securing the Treble, culminating in the Champions League 5-0 Final victory over Inter on Saturday.

However, that also pushed South Korea international winger Kang-in Lee onto the bench, despite his six goals and six assists in Ligue 1 this season.

According to the Corriere dello Sport, Napoli will try to take advantage of the situation by offering to take the 24-year-old to the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

It would mean effectively exchanging places with Kvaratskhelia, the man who replaced him in the PSG line-up.

Although he made 45 competitive appearances this term, only 26 were from the starting XI.

The asking price is reported to be in the region of €40m, but considering the rapport between the two clubs, a discounted deal or loan with option to buy is possible.
