'European Travel' Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain) season is expected to end only in July.

Lee Kang-in, who is set to play in the final match of the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 North-China World Cup against Kuwait at 8 p.m. on the 10th at Seoul World Cup Stadium, is expected to fly to the United States after the match.

French daily `Le Parisien' reported on the 10th (Korea Standard Time) that Lee Kang-in, Marquignos (Brazil), and Willian Pacho (Ecado), who did not play their second A-match, will join the team in the United States directly.




PSG said on the club's website on the 10th local time that the team plans to leave for the United States to play the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.

PSG, which belongs to Group B of the Club World Cup, is scheduled to play three consecutive games against Atletico Madrid on the 15th, Botafogu on the 19th, and the Seattle Sounders on the 23rd.

Major PSG players, who defeated Inter Milan in the European Champions League final on the 1st and won the 'big year' for the first time in the club's history, have to play the 'murder schedule' as soon as they play the A-match in June.

The problem is that major players are complaining of injuries and physical problems. 'Zoopo' Usman Dembele is expected to miss two to three weeks due to a left leg injury. The possibility of missing all three group games is raised. According to 'Le Parisien', he was able to stay in Paris for treatment, but he will be accompanied by the squad for now to facilitate his joining.

Winger Bradley Barcola, along with Dembele, has been dropped from the French national team with a knee injury. Fortunately, Barcola's injury is not serious, so he is expected to play in the group stage.

Spanish and Portuguese players Fabian Lewis, João Neves, Vitinha, Nunu Mendes, and Gonzalo Hamus, who belong to PSG, fought 120 minutes of extra time in the European Nations League final on the 9th, causing considerable physical damage.




He should play his first group match without sufficient recovery.

Le Parisien predicted that Dembele's unexpected injury could be an opportunity for Lee Kang-in and Hamus. Lee Kang-in and Hamus were mainly replaced in the second half of last season by the powerful three-top leading to Dembele-Hvicha Kravatskhelia-Desire Doue (Barcola).

Lee Kang-in is also inevitable to push ahead. Lee Kang-in played full-time in an away game in Iraq on the 6th after a short break after the Champions League final. After the game, he has to return to Korea and play the match against Kuwait in four days. If you fly to the United States under this circumstance, you will inevitably experience a jet lag problem with 'World Travel' leading to 'Paris-Iraq-Seoul-LA' in just a week.

Lee Kang-in is linked to rumors of transfers to Italy's Napoli and Saudi Arabia's Al Nasr ahead of the Club World Cup.

Lee Kang-in played in a total of 45 games in PSG uniforms last season, scoring six goals and six assists, contributing to the team's historic treble.
