PSG's Lee set to join Athletico

SPORTS 08.07.2026

Paris Saint-Germain's South Korea attacker Lee Kang-In is set to join Athletico Madrid in a deal worth almost 40 million euros ($45.7 million), a source told AFP on Wednesday.

Text size:

The 25-year-old joined the French club in 2023 from Mallorca and won the Champions League twice and Ligue 1 three times during his spell at Parc des Princes.

The source added there were "minor details to finalise" between the two clubs with two years remaining of Lee's contract.

He scored 16 goals in 124 appearances for PSG but had his gametime limited under Luis Enrique and suffered a thigh injury in January.

Lee made the last of his 50 international appearances during the World Cup as South Korea were knocked out of the group stage.

PSG have already sold fellow attacker Goncalo Ramos to AC Milan and sources have told AFP the two-time European champions are holding talks with Monaco's Maghnes Akliouche and RB Leipzig's Yan Diomande.
