Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) does not want Lee Kang-in to transfer. In order to transfer, it seems that a considerable amount of transfer fee proposal will be needed.
French newspaper L'Equipe shed light on PSG's finalization of the summer transfer market, saying on the 21st (Korea time) that PSG's priority is to send players outside of its power. L'Equipe shed light on the situation of several players and did not leave out Lee Kang-in. `Lee Kang-in, who is currently receiving attention from various clubs, is one of the members who is contemplating his future. However, PSG are thinking about keeping Lee Kang-in on the sidelines'
According to the official, Lee Kang-in's transfer can occur at any time, but it means that it is possible only when an amount that cannot be rejected is presented. He added that if Lee Kang-in leaves, he will have to recruit a substitute.

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.

With the shaky position, the courtship of several teams began. Saudi Arabia and several clubs showed interest, starting with Arsenal, Manchester United and Crystal Palace in the English Premier League (EPL). Roy Tanzido 'Lee Kang-in, who is familiar with PSG news, is looking at all options because he sensed that the transfer market was flowing around him. Several Premier League clubs have already expressed interest. Serie A Napoli also showed interest in it.
However, as PSG sticks to the high transfer fee and plans to keep Lee Kang-in, Lee Kang-in's chances of transferring this summer have significantly decreased. It is unclear whether EPL teams, which entered at the end of the transfer market, will be able to invest a lot of money in recruiting Lee Kang-in right away. Moreover, PSG is also weighing on staying as Lee Kang-in scored a goal to help his team win the 2025 UEFA Super Cup final against Tottenham at Blue Energy Stadium in Udine, Italy on the 14th. It is also expected that Lee Kang-in, who is struggling to transfer this summer, will receive great attention on what choice he will make.
