Lee Kang-in, who has recently started for two consecutive games in French Ligue 1, is raising his form. In the last game, he is improving with help.
Spain's Pichahes reported on the 23rd (Korea time) 'There is a possibility that one of the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) players will sign with the Saudi Arabian club this summer'
The reason is that Lee Kang-in has not been able to establish himself at PSG.
Lee Kang-in was in the process of solidifying his starting position in the team even at the beginning of this season. At the heart of the zero-top tactic, he was in the mood to become the crown prince of PSG coach Luis Enrique. However, in the middle of the season, Desiree Doue's performance was great, and Khvitsa Kvaratshelia's joining pushed Lee Kang-in to the bench.
In the end, Lee Kang-in has become a rotation resource for main players' physical fitness management. On top of that, he was not given a chance to play recently due to injuries, and he has just returned and is taking care of his playing time.
Lee Kang-in is the ace of the South Korean national team in name and reality, and there is no doubt about his talent. The problem lies in PSG squads with overly rich offensive resources. It seems that he cannot be guaranteed the opportunity to play in the starting lineup next season.

Although PSG has not made an official statement on Lee Kang-in's future, internally, it is reported that they are already considering the possibility of his transfer.
Pichahes argued that `Although discussions are currently in the early stages, negotiations can speed up if Lee Kang-in clearly communicates his intention to transfer to the club.'
Saudi Arabia expects to recruit Lee Kang-in to boost the league's competitiveness and secure a fan base in Northeast Asia. Of course, Lee Kang-in's ability is also much higher than the level of the Saudi league, so he can immediately become a powerhouse.
However, the possibility of Lee Kang-in moving to the Saudi league is close to zero. This is because I'm still an age where I can challenge myself, and senior soccer players such as Son Heung-min and Kim Min-jae continue to challenge in Europe. The Saudi league is not a good option to be on the World Cup stage as a member of the Korean national team.
Lee Kang-in is at the crossroads of choosing whether to continue his competition for the starting lineup at PSG next season or continue his challenge in the other four major leagues, including the English Premier League (EPL).
