If there really is a 'God of football', maybe he is now standing next to Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain). Lee Kang-in is overcoming the dizzying injury faster than expected. A detailed examination showed that the degree of injury was not very serious, and the recovery speed was fast, so he even joined the training immediately. It can be seen as the result of heaven's help.
French media L'Equipe, which is recognized for its strongest public confidence, said on the 16th (Korean time) 'Lee Kang-in carried out PSG's team training earlier in the day. As a result, there is a possibility that he will play in the match against Atalata' It is the result of a surprising recovery or a milder-than-expected injury condition. Whatever it is, it is encouraging news for Lee Kang-in. This is because it signals that you can return to the ground faster than you think.
Lee Kang-in was injured when he started in the fourth round of the French League in the 2025-2926 season at Parc des Princes in Paris, France, on the morning of the 15th. PSG coach Luis Enrique used Lee Kang-in as a left midfielder in the 4-3-3 formation.
This is thanks to the opportunity created by the injury of Usman Dembele and Desiree Doue during the A-match in September. Of course, there are still many competitors of Lee Kang-in, including Gonzalo Hamus and Ibrahim Mbaye, within the PSG team. However, the departure of two injuries can be interpreted as an aspect that Lee Kang-in could have a chance to play.
However, Lee Kang-in did not make good use of the opportunity to start again after the first round. It is true that he has made threatening moves several times in offense and defense. However, he failed to lead to an offensive point decisively and was replaced by an injury in the second half.
Lee Kang-in even showed a surprise left-footed mid-range shot in the 10th minute of the second half with a 2-0 lead. However, excessive motivation seems to have been rather poisonous. After a mid-range shot, there was a problem on the right step where he lowered strongly. As if his ankle was overloaded, Lee Kang-in collapsed as it was.
Despite the referee's order to resume the game, Lee Kang-in was hardly able to move. Eventually, the referee temporarily suspended the game and called PSG medical staff. That's all for Lee Kang-in's play. Lee Kang-in was replaced by Seni Mayulu with a mournful look on his face.
Since then, inquiries have been made about Lee Kang-in's condition. After the game, Enrique said "The exact thing will only be known by the test results." In addition, the injury was in line with the one that occurred when he joined the South Korean A team led by head coach Hong Myung-bo in September. This is why there have been concerns that Lee Kang-in may be absent for a long time due to this injury.
However, there was a cloud of heaven. The examination determined that it was not such a serious injury. As soon as L'Equipe reported Lee Kang-in's participation in training, Lee Kang-in's ankle is almost all better.
Unlike concerns, Lee Kang-in's quick recovery from an ankle injury may be a major turning point in his career. At PSG, all Lee Kang-in's competitors are injured. Not only Dembele and Doue, but also Khvicha Kvaratshelia was injured. If Lee Kang-in recovers quickly, there is a possibility that he will beat his competitors and play as the main player to his heart's content. In many ways, Lee Kang-in is in a situation that has become a ' blessing in disguise'. Attention is focusing on whether Lee Kang-in will be able to play in the first round of the Champions League and promote his skills.
