The Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is gearing up for a dynamic summer transfer window, with both incoming and outgoing moves on the horizon. Among the departures, Kang-In Lee is expected to leave the club, with his next destination likely being Atlético Madrid. The South Korean international’s transfer could be finalized during the 2026 FIFA World Cup in North America.
While Yan Diomandé, Maghnes Akliouche, and Alessandro Longoni are being eyed for potential signings, the focus remains on the potential departure of Kang-In Lee. The 25-year-old midfielder, following the footsteps of Gonçalo Ramos—who is set to join AC Milan—has expressed his desire for a fresh challenge. His move to Atlético Madrid appears imminent, with an official announcement possible during the global tournament.
Atlético Madrid close in on Kang-In Lee
Reliable reports suggest that Kang-In Lee is on the verge of becoming a new signing for Atlético Madrid. The timing of the announcement may coincide with the 2026 World Cup, particularly if South Korea exits the competition early, allowing the Spanish side to make their move.
PSG’s asking price set at €35 million
Negotiations between Atlético Madrid and PSG have progressed smoothly, with the French club reportedly seeking a fee between €30 and €35 million for the South Korean midfielder. Such a valuation aligns with the expectations of Atlético Madrid, who are eager to bolster their squad. A deal could be finalized swiftly, keeping fans on the edge of their seats.
