PSG have assembled a deep squad that has brought them close to a treble, but one player could be weighing a move amid reported interest from clubs abroad.
Under Luis Enrique, PSG have leaned on that depth to win consecutive Ligue 1 titles, the Coupe de France, the UEFA Champions League, and the UEFA Super Cup, rotating players to keep them fresh across multiple competitions.
Not every player is satisfied with a rotational role, though. Some want more consistent minutes, and Kang-in Lee seems to be one of them. He played a key role in PSG’s Super Cup comeback win over Tottenham Hotspur, showing his impactwhen on the pitch.

With Premier League clubs and others keen on him, Korean journalist Nam Jang-hyun believes that the PSG standout should depart the French capital in search of a more prominent role.
“Korean media and fans are asking a lot of questions about whether Kang-in Lee isbeing given enough opportunities,”Jang-hyun told Foot Mercato. “I knowit’s impossible for PSG to play all their starters in every match, but many find it hard to understand why heis consistently left out of important games.
“This is a World Cup year, which raises serious concerns about maintaining his performance level. No matter the size of the club, it’s difficult for a player who can’t play regularly to perform well.”
