Arriving this summer at Paris Saint-Germain from Mallorca, Kang-In Lee has had very little time to express himself in the Parisian squad since his arrival. Between injuries and participation in the Asian Games, the South Korean is still a mystery to his leaders and supporters.
Nevertheless, the Parisian attacking midfielder has given a glimpse of good things under the red and blue tunic during his rare outings. Better yet, he delights with his selection. Whether during the Asian Games or this Friday against Tunisia.
Started at kick-off by his coach, the number 19 of the capital club delivered an XXL performance on the pitch of the Seoul World Cup Stadium. The Parisian was one of the great architects of the sparkling success of the South Koreans (4-0), finding the net twice.
A first goal from a free kick then a second from a shot into the area with the left foot which wrong-footed the Tunisian goalkeeper.
A performance which will not go unnoticed in the eyes of his Parisian coach who is eager to reunite with his player after a long period of absence (Kang-In Lee has been absent from the Ile-de-France group since September 24.
Doubled in 2 minutes against Tunisia including this free kick! 😍

An important role at PSG?
Kang-In Lee is a player with a more than interesting profile. A creative player who can play on the wings but also in the midfield, the left-hander is more than compatible with Luis Enrique’s game plan. His versatility is a real asset and could allow him to have a lot of playing time. According to the latest reports, he should be used in the Parisian midfield where he would compete with Vitinha.
