Lee Kang-in's transfer possibility is on fire again.
French RMC Sports reporter Fabrice Hawkins, who is familiar with the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), reported on the 14th (Korea time) 'Lee Kang-in can leave the team if he gets a good offer'
Hawkins said, `Lee Kang-in was inquired by the English Premier League (EPL) clubs. If he leaves the team, he will find a replacement. Lee Kang-in got off to a good start against Tottenham. He often played on the right side of the attack and scored goals. Will the transfer be enough?' he said, expressing interest in Lee Kang-in.

Lee Kang-in played for about 22 minutes after replacing Warren Zaire-Emery in the 23rd minute of the second half in the 2025 UEFA Super Cup final against Tottenham at Blue Energy Stadium in Udine, Italy on the 14th. In the 40th minute of the second half, when PSG was dragged 0-2 and was losing, he scored a chase goal with a left-footed mid-range shot that passed Vittinha's pass in front of the arc and stabbed into the corner of the goal, marking the start of a reversal. PSG brought the game back to square one with a header goal from Gonzalo Hamus in the third minute of extra time in the second half and lifted the trophy after a penalty shootout.
Lee Kang-in added a trophy with this performance, raising interest in the transfer. Lee Kang-in has been steadily raising the possibility of leaving PSG since the 2024-2025 season. It was being pushed out of the team plan little by little. Lee Kang-in, who had established himself as a clear main player under Luis Enrique until last season, has changed since the winter transfer market in January. After Khvicha Kvaratshelia joined PSG, Enrique began operating a fixed starting lineup.

It was the opposite of how he used several players, including Lee Kang-in, in turns until the beginning of this season. Khvicha, Usman Dembele, Bradley Barcola, and Desiree Doue, João Neves and Vitinha were the main starters in the midfield. Lee Kang-in, who was pushed back from the competition, did not have many opportunities. There was no time to play in the final of the European Champions League or Cup, and he was only able to start in some games where the main players took a break.
Things have not changed until summer, and interest in Lee Kang-in has steadily emerged. Saudi Arabia and several clubs have already shown interest, starting with the English Premier League (EPL). In this situation, EPL's interest has emerged again, drawing attention to Lee Kang-in's possibility of entering the English stage. It is already known that Arsenal, Manchester United, and Crystal Palace have expressed interest as candidates for Lee Kang-in.
The best talent of the Korean A team is heading to the center of the market again. Attention is focusing on which teams and what courtship they will send.
