Lee Kang-in missed again. Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) finished second after losing to Chelsea in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final. Above all, it is urgent to move to another team. Manchester United and Napoli are mentioned as transfer destinations.
Lee Kang-in failed to play in the FIFA Club World Cup final at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on the 14th (Korea time). Chelsea beat PSG 3-0 with Cole Palmer's performance.
Lee Kang-in's position in the team continues to decline. He also failed to get a proper chance to play in this club World Cup. Despite falling behind in the final, PSG coach Luis Enrique turned away Lee Kang-in.
Lee Kang-in seems to have been completely pushed out of the competition with PSG's attackers, which includes Desiree Doue, Hvicha Kvaratshelia, Bradley Barcola and Usman Dembele. He also failed to become the main player in the midfield position, which is guarded by Vitinha and João Neves.

In this situation, Lee Kang-in's departure from the team is certain.
PSG InsideActus, which mainly reports on PSG, said `It's very likely that Lee Kang-in and Lucas Hernandez will leave Paris Saint-Germain.' `It's almost certain that Lee Kang-in, and Napoli, Manchester United, and several Saudi Arabian teams are showing strong interest.'
Napoli is a team that has been consistently sending love calls to Lee Kang-in. Recently, some predict that Napoli will accept the transfer fee of Lee Kang-in, which is demanded by PSG. Napoli wants to accelerate the recruitment of Lee Kang-in.
From Lee Kang-in's point of view, it is a good choice if he can join Napoli. The top priority is to secure time to play and restore the sense of play ahead of the 2026 North-China World Cup.
The English Premier League is not bad either. Above all, it is a good league to receive global attention, and there may be advantages to future transfers. Manchester United has recently focused on recruiting players, so it is also considered a team that can look forward to next season. If Lee Kang-in joins, the main position is definitive, and it is a structure that can grow with the team and attract attention. Manchester United significantly strengthened its offensive power by recruiting Matheus Cunha to the offensive team. He is also trying to strengthen his poor goal-making ability by recruiting Brian Mbomo.
Lee Kang-in can play as a right winger or midfielder. There is also a possibility that he will be placed in the playmaker's position.
Lee Kang-in moved to PSG from Mallorca in Spain's La Liga in 2023. It is under contract with PSG until June 2028.
He performed impressively at the beginning of last season, but has not started since the middle of the season as he has been pushed out of the main competition. As a result, moving the nest to a new team in this transfer market seems to be the best option.
