In July 2023, Paris Saint-Germain secured the services of
Lee Kang-infrom Mallorca, for 22 million euros. Despite a mixed first season, the South Korean international continues to be used very regularly by Luis Enrique, who has played him 22 times, in all competitions, since the start of the current financial year.
Pierre Ménès absolutely does not understand what the Spanish technician finds in his number 19. “It is an odorless, colorless and tasteless player. He never plays forward. He constantly gets on his left foot to put the ball behind, to Hakimi,” judged the sports journalist on his YouTube channel “Pierrot Le Foot”.
Lee Kang-in, why does Luis Enrique use him so much?
Hervé Mathoux’s former sidekick at CFC even believes that he benefits from preferential treatment. “It annoys me when I see the treatment reserved for certain other players in the PSG squad… Especially when I see that Kang-In Lee is a starter or that he comes into every match where he starts as a substitute. He doesn’t have the level to play for PSG.”concludes the native of the 8th arrondissement of Paris.
Lee Kang-In is one of the PSG players who sells the most jerseys bearing his name, which is also very popular for other products derived from the reigning French champion. According to Foot Mercatoa Premier League team would have previously offered 70 million euros to the Rouge et Bleu to secure his services.
