Psg transfer news: kang-in lee linked with atletico madrid move

Paris Saint-Germain appears set for a busy summer transfer window, with both departures and arrivals expected. Among the players whose futures are under scrutiny, midfielder Kang-In Lee has become a focal point of speculation, with reports linking him to a move to Atlético de Madrid.

Since joining PSG in 2023, 25-year-old Kang-In Lee has struggled to secure a regular place in Luis Enrique’s starting lineup. Despite his strong performances in patches, he remains outside the first-team plans, fueling speculation about his future. Atlético de Madrid has emerged as a serious contender for his services, with ongoing discussions reportedly in place.

Atlético de Madrid’s pursuit intensifies

The Spanish club is reportedly pursuing multiple transfer targets, with Kang-In Lee remaining a priority. While negotiations for other players—including a potential move for Sporting CP’s Hjulmand—are also underway, the South Korean international remains a key figure in Atlético’s midfield plans. His contract with PSG runs until 2028, but a departure this summer seems increasingly plausible.

South Korea’s World Cup exit opens new possibilities

Kang-In Lee’s international commitments with South Korea took a hit earlier this year when the team was eliminated in the group stage of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Though the setback was disappointing, it may have provided the 25-year-old with the breathing space to reassess his club future. Atlético de Madrid will need to table an offer close to the midfielder’s current valuation of €28 million, as per Transfermarkt data, to secure his signature.
