Lee Kang-in set to join Atletico Madrid from PSG

South Korean midfielder Lee Kang-in, 25, who has made 39 appearances for Paris Saint‑Germain, has reached an agreement to transfer to Atletico Madrid this summer. The clubs are negotiating a fee estimated between €25 million and €30 million, lower than the €20‑23 million PSG paid for him in 2023. PSG, where Lee still has two years on his contract, may try to wait for the 2026 World Cup to boost his market value.

Lee, used sparingly by coach Luis Enrique, is seeking more playing time. While other French clubs such as Olympique Lyonnais and Monaco were mentioned as possible destinations, Lee has consistently indicated Atletico Madrid as his preferred move. Sources including Cadena SER report that the deal is close to completion, pending final agreement between the two clubs.
