Lee Kang-in's future has not been decided yet. Will it remain at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

French media Le10 Sport said on the 11th (Korea time) 'As PSG coach Luis Enrique still has players classified outside of his power, the possibility of another surprise transfer cannot be ruled out. In particular, he noted Lee Kang-in's future, reporting that Gonzalo Hamus and Lee Kang-in could be scapegoats in PSG's squad management.

The media said 'The competition for offensive resources in PSG is fierce. After Usman Dembele, Desiree Doue, Khvicha Kvaratshelia and Bradley Barcola, it is not easy to secure time to play. Hamus and Lee Kang-in are also examples of not getting enough opportunities to play under Enrique last season. According to journalist Fabrice Hawkins' message, the possibility of a transfer of the two players cannot be ruled out.

Hawkins, a reporter with RMC Sports, a French media outlet, is a reporter who is fluent in PSG's internal information. He mentioned the future of Lee Kang-in and Gonzalo Ramos through RMC's 'After Mercato', expressing his view that the future of the two players is still uncertain.

Reporter Hawkins said, `The two players had a little less time to play and were influenced by Enrique's choice. They have not received a transfer permit, but if a club shows interest and wants the player himself to leave even tomorrow, and there is a possibility that they will leave the team because of the low playing time." In other words, as long as the interests of the club and the players are properly matched, the transfer can be allowed. First of all, Hawkins added, `However, there is no sign of that at this time.'

Reporter Hawkins explained that it is clear that the club is interested in Lee Kang-in. He said "There are clubs watching Lee Kang-in. Personally, the player who should pay attention to in this transfer market..." However, there is no club that has offered specifically yet. If he leaves, PSG will sign a replacement."

Like Hawkins' analysis, Lee Kang-in may be considering new options in the summer transfer market due to limited playing time and the reality of being pushed back in tactical priorities. This is because he is concerned about his performance to spend time only on the bench a year before the World Cup. Born in 2001, it is not easy to be satisfied with replacement resources at a time when it is time to open up its heyday.

No specific love call has been confirmed yet, but there is plenty of room for the situation to change rapidly when the transfer market opens in earnest in the future. In the end, Lee Kang-in's future is expected to change significantly this summer depending on PSG's squad operation direction and outside clubs' movements. What is certain is that even now, the future is still in the fog.
