Lee Kang-in and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are on the verge of winning their second consecutive league title.
PSG won 6-1 in the 27th round of the 2024-2025 French League 1 at Parc des Princes in Paris, France on the 30th (Korea time). PSG, which added three points, maintained an overwhelming league lead.
Lee Kang-in, who injured his ankle during the A-match in March, was absent on the day, but PSG had a goal party. PSG gave up the first run in the 9th minute of the first half, but it was balanced by Gonzalo Hamus' equalizer at the end of the first half. In the second half, PSG won the game completely, starting with Khvicha Kravatshelia's come-from-behind goal, followed by consecutive goals from Desiree Doue, João Neves and Ibrahim Mbaye.
In fact, it was a game to confirm PSG's fourth consecutive league championship. With the victory, the difference between PSG and second-place AS Monaco widened to a whopping 21 points. There are only seven remaining league games. Monaco has 71 maximum points to build up in the future. PSG can confirm its league championship early if it wins a draw against Angé in the next round.
If that happens, PSG will win its fourth consecutive league championship since the 2021-2022 season. It is Lee Kang-in whose winning uniform has exploded properly. Lee Kang-in has been collecting trophies since he wore a PSG uniform last season. Starting with the French Super Cup, he won the league with the Coupe de France, winning three championships last season alone.

He has already won the French Super Cup trophy this season. PSG and Lee Kang-in are challenging the treble. Winning the league is actually over. Victory in the upcoming Coupe de France semifinals against Dunkirk will face the winners of Cannes and Stade Rennes in the final. Coupe de France is also a PSG that is likely to win the championship.
If so, Lee Kang-in is likely to sweep the French tournament for two consecutive seasons after transfer. You can add six trophies in two seasons alone. Lee Kang-in is the first Korean player to win such a big league every season since Park Ji-sung's time at Manchester United.
Lee Kang-in and PSG are aiming to win the European Champions League (UCL). PSG, which defeated Liverpool, which was considered the top candidate for this season's championship, and advanced to the quarterfinals, faces Aston Villa. Villa are a tricky opponent, but PSG is far ahead in power and flow. If they beat Villa and reach the semifinals, they will face Real Madrid or Arsenal. PSG is the best team in Europe in 2025, so there is no team that can't beat it.
If Lee Kang-in wins the UCL with PSG, he will also become the first Korean player to win the trophy since Park Ji-sung. For now, it is important for Lee Kang-in to regain the upper hand in the main competition, which has recently been pushed out after recovering quickly from an ankle injury.
