Press review: Lee Kang-In has officially left PSG | OneFootball

This Sunday, July 26, the French press (on the sporting side) focused, regarding Paris Saint-Germain, on Lee Kang-In’s departure (the 25-year-old midfielder/forward) from PSG to Atlético Madrid. We also saw the touching message from the staff for Didier Deschamps, who is leaving his post as head coach of the French national team after 14 years.

L’Equipe –

After an agreement had been reported in the media for some time, PSG and Atlético Madrid were finally able to make the transfer official. The fee is estimated by the media at 40 million euros. It is a rather good deal for Paris, who signed the player for 22 million from Mallorca in 2023. For Atlético, it is a quality addition without an enormous outlay, with the hope that he can take the step forward he lacked in impact and consistency in order to become a starter at PSG. In any case, it is a fine challenge for the player, who experienced some very beautiful moments in the capital but wanted a different role.

As for Deschamps and his staff, there are inevitably many meaningful things to say after everything they experienced with the French national team, including the 2018 World Cup won in Russia. Here, it is an opportunity to remember, while many are celebrating the arrival of Zinédine Zidane (which should be made official this Tuesday), that there are deep emotions for these people who gave their all for the national team. Let us not forget to show respect for everything this staff has done and for their feelings.
