[스포티비뉴스=조용운 기자] Lee Kang-in is expected to remain at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) next season.
‘PSG INSIDE ACTUS’, which mainly deals with information about Paris Saint-Germain, revealed the kill report submitted by manager Luis Enrique to the club’s leadership on the 9th (Korean time). Since Paris Saint-Germain plans to provide more authority to coach Enrique next season, attention is focused on the roster divided into sale and retention.
Lee Kang-in was classified as a candidate to remain, as coach Enrique had consistently trusted. Lee Kang-in, who wore the Paris Saint-Germain uniform this season, passed coach Enrique’s test well. Even in the first half of the season, he boasted of a solid starting position. He received great trust from Coach Enrique with his multi-player ability regardless of his position.
He expressed great satisfaction with his talent. Coach Enrique said at the end of last year, “For those who don’t watch the Spanish Primera Liga, Lee Kang-in is probably a little unfamiliar player,” and added, “Lee Kang-in played right winger and left winger. It’s very important. Lee Kang-in has technical ability. “And he sacrifices himself for the team,” he said, giving a positive evaluation that remains valid so far.
Lee Kang-in also proves this, recording 4 goals and 4 assists in all official games even in his first season as a member, showing his influence throughout the field. Using Lee Kang-in’s performance as a stepping stone, Paris Saint-Germain began a project to focus on young and promising players. Paris Saint-Germain, which signed a five-year contract with Lee Kang-in last summer for a transfer fee of 22 million euros (about 34.2 billion won), was being evaluated as having secured a long-term future with a small investment.
Of course, when he was doing poorly, the atmosphere surrounding Lee Kang-in was unusual. Last month, news was also heard that Lee Kang-in was on the release list. Based on information from the Italian media, it was predicted that Paris Saint-Germain would use Lee Kang-in as a trade card to recruit Victor Osimhen (Napoli). Coincidentally, Lee Kang-in also played in the first leg of the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League against Barcelona but performed very poorly, giving support to rumors of his release.
Even now that we’re nearing the end of the season, it’s not all that good. Lee Kang-in was not selected for both the first and second legs of the Champions League semifinal against Borussia Dortmund. Lee Kang-in, who was trusted by Coach Enrique at the most important time, was anxious as he only played for a short period of time. Still, Lee Kang-in proved the necessity with his skills. He showed off his strengths well even after only playing a short time in the second match against Dortmund.
Lee Kang-in showed off his sharp left foot kicking power. Just before the end of regular time, he attempted a sharp left-footed shot in front of the box, but it missed the goal. However, he did enough to threaten Dortmund with one good shot, opportunity creation, and 100% cross success rate. He was naturally recognized for his ratings as well. Football statistics media ‘Foot Mob’ gave it a rating of 6.8 points, and ‘Sofa Score’ also gave it a rating of 7.7 points. The fact that he came in as a replacement and received this kind of evaluation shows that he has the ability to change the atmosphere.
If Lee Kang-in had been used a little longer, the fate of Paris Saint-Germain would have been different. Unfortunately, Paris Saint-Germain lost both the first and second games to Dortmund and was eliminated. Now Paris Saint-Germain must come up with a new plan. Kylian Mbappe is also leaving Paris Saint-Germain at the end of this season, so he is looking forward to giving strength to coach Enrique’s plans.
Lee Kang-in, along with Fabian Lewis and Colo Muani, became eligible to remain in the well-known killing department. As Coach Enrique has praised Lee Kang-in’s abilities, it is highly likely that he will make him a main force next season. PSG INSIDE ACTUS said, “Lee Kang-in has already received a request from coach Enrique to remain.”
Unlike Lee Kang-in, many of them were unable to avoid the blade. According to PSG INSIDE ACTUS, the seven players are Nordi Mukiele, Gonzalo Hamus, Manuel Ugarte, Milan Skriniar, Danilo, Carlos Soler and Marco Asensio. Those who joined this season along with Lee Kang-in were also listed for sale and did not appear to be just being held as freshmen.
