Transfer news – Atlético keen on Lee Kang-In, PSG set their asking price!

Arriving in the summer transfer window in July 2023 from Mallorca, Lee Kang-In, the 25-year-old Korean midfielder/winger, is under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until June 2028. He took some time to adapt and establish himself, but eventually managed to step up his game. In recent weeks, he has attracted rumors, notably with interest from Atlético Madrid and the idea of a contract extension. Today, journalist Sacha Tavolieri provided an update for Sky Sport.

“Lee would even be open to the idea of joining Atlético Madrid”

“According to our information, initial contacts have already taken place behind the scenes. The agent of the South Korean international recently traveled to Madrid, where he met with members of the Colchoneros’ management to discuss the possibility of a transfer during the next summer window. The player would not be opposed to a return to Spain. Kang-in Lee would even be open to the idea of joining Atlético Madrid if discussions between the clubs were to progress.”

“The Parisian management is rather considering extending the player’s contract.”

The Parisian management is rather considering extending the player’s contract. If an offer were to come in, PSG’s position is already clear: the club has no intention of selling Kang-in Lee for less than 40 million euros.”

As always, we advise a certain level of caution regarding transfer rumors. The media is buzzing around the “Lee case,” but there has not been the slightest concrete confirmation. It is difficult to know how far discussions with Atlético Madrid might really progress, both from the player’s side and the club’s.

Everyone is more or less heading in the same direction and the interest is credible, so negotiations are conceivable. However, both clubs may have difficulty agreeing on a price. There is also talk of a contract extension, but it is unclear how interested Lee is, or if a financial agreement is possible. It’s still too vague, so we’ll wait to find out more.
