Will Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain) face Son Heung-min (Tottenham Hotspur).

Lee Kang-in's agent is known to have contacted English Premier League teams, drawing keen attention. Spanish media Relevo reported on the 16th (Korea time) that Javier Garrido, Lee Kang-in's agent, visited the UK and contacted several teams including Manchester United, Aston Villa and Everton.

The agents' visit to the team is a normal business that has nothing to do with the transfer deadline. In preparation for the upcoming summer transfer market, the team focuses on judging the compatibility between the type of player they want and the player they help. Agent Lee Kang-in's trip to England is interpreted as a similar move.




However, considering Lee Kang-in's recent position at PSG, it is difficult to focus on simple tasks. French media Score France reported that `Lewis Enrique acknowledges Lee Kang-in's ability, but he is having difficulty consistently sending him to the game'PSG is preparing to release several players this summer, and Lee Kang-in is one of them'. Foot01, another French media outlet, also claimed that `Lee Kang-in is likely to leave PSG at the end of this season.'

Premier League teams' interest in Lee Kang-in has been around for a while. However, after observing PSG's recent movements, the interest seems to have heated up. Spanish media Strikers said 'Manchester United is paying attention to Lee Kang-in this summer. In the transfer market last winter, Lee Kang-in was also considered as a target for recruitment. PSG wants 40 million euros (about 63 billion won) as a transfer fee, and Manchester United seems willing to pay for it. It is unclear whether Manchester United, which has recently been suffering from financial difficulties, will actually move, but it shows that there is interest in Lee Kang-in.

If Lee Kang-in goes to the Premier League, attention will inevitably be paid to the possibility of a confrontation with Son Heung-min.




Son Heung-min is expected to break up with Tottenham this summer. He still plays the role of Tottenham captain, but he doesn't look solid. In particular, in the UK, the majority of opinion is that Tottenham should send Son Heung-min out. In the meantime, several teams, including Bayern Munich (Germany), are showing interest in Son Heung-min.

It remains to be seen whether Son Heung-min will actually leave the Premier League. There is no reason to refuse if it is a proposal from a big club that is capable of winning the European Champions League as well as leagues such as Munich. However, the possibility of a confrontation with Lee Kang-in is also open, given that options such as Park Ji-sung joining Queens Park Rangers after leaving Manchester United and continuing his challenge in the Premier League cannot be ruled out.
