Lee Kang-in of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is showing good moves early in the season. He played in three of the four matches, including the UEFA Super Cup and the French League 13. There is not much time to play, but he seems to be regaining his previous skills with good dribbling and repression. He also scored against Tottenham in the Super Cup. There is also a possibility that Usman Dembele will regain his starting position due to the injury.
Lee Kang-in received attention from English Premier League teams in the transfer market last summer. The transfer failed, but some teams are expected to continue to seek Lee Kang-in's recruitment. The target could be January next year.
France's top Mercato said on the 6th (Korea time) that "Uman Dembele is expected to miss his first Champions League match due to injury" and added that "With the transfer market already closed, PSG must find a solution within itself."
Not only Dembele but also Desiree are suspected of injury. It can be a big opportunity for rotation resources, including Lee Kang-in.
The media chose Gonzalo Hamus and Bradley Barcola as resources to replace Dembele. However, he claimed that there is a possibility of Lee Kang-in's surprise deployment.
Top Mercato said "The most unexpected option is to start Lee Kang-in. "He's below Dembele in terms of speed, but he's the most similar type in terms of technical completion and dribbling ability. Lee Kang-in has been on the front line at PSG six times last season, which is more than Desiree Doue or Barcola." "He scored goals and assists in two of them, resulting in results," he said.
Of course, it is unclear whether coach Luis Enrique will use Lee Kang-in. Lee Kang-in is still considered an obvious rotation resource, and he almost left PSG this summer. However, Luis Enrique's tactical decisions are often unpredictable. Lee Kang-in can be fully considered as Dembele's replacement.
Lee Kang-in couldn't leave the transfer market team last summer. Nottingham in the Premier League was one of the teams desperate to recruit Lee Kang-in.
On the same day, Britain's Nottingham Post reported, "PSG's Lee Kang-in was the target of Nottingham Forest," he reported.
Nottingham sought to strengthen its offense by recruiting Lee Kang-in. I had to bring a big player because I'm going into the European match last season finishing seventh in the league. One of them was Lee Kang-in, but he failed to succeed in the end. PSG is determined to have Lee Kang-in as a rotation resource for one more season.
It is possible that Nottingham has not yet given up on recruiting Lee Kang-in. If Lee Kang-in stays on the bench with rotation resources for a longer time this season, he can give up further staying.
According to the media, "Lee Kang-in of Paris Saint-Germain was a side resource that Nottingham was interested in. An offer worth 30 million euros (about 48.7 billion won) was rejected "South Korean national team Lee Kang-in is still a member of PSG, but speculation has been raised that he may move to the transfer market in January," he said.
