Arsenal of the Premier League, which failed to recruit Lee Kang-in last winter, will try again.
British media The Sun reported on the 7th (Korea time) that Arsenal is trying to recruit PSG midfielder Lee Kang-in. It is the second challenge following the winter transfer market in January.
The media said, "Asnall's coach Mikel Arteta showed interest in recruiting Lee Kang-in in January, and new sports director Andrea Berta will make room for Lee Kang-in in the squad."
In January, Arsenal showed great interest in Lee Kang-in. At the time, global sports media "Die Athletic" reported, "Lee Kang-in is one of the players under discussion at Arsenal. He is playing hard under Luis Enrique, but he is considering his options at PSG," adding, "He is open to new challenges."
"PSG does not actively try to sell Lee Kang-in. We highly value Lee Kang-in, who has a great influence in the Asian market, both inside and outside the stadium. In order to recruit him, he needs to be more than double the 22 million euros (34.7 billion won) transfer fee incurred when he moved from Majorca (Spain) in 2023," he added.
In addition to Arsenal, other Premier League teams such as Manchester United and Newcastle United also showed interest in Lee Kang-in. However, as PSG caught Lee Kang-in, the winter transfer did not happen.
Arsenal seems to be trying again in the summer. Notably, media reported that former Atletico Madrid director Bertha is considering Lee Kang-in as one of the first summer transfers after moving to Arsenal.
The media said, "Bertha failed to recruit Lee Kang-in from Atletico Madrid when PSG recruited Lee Kang-in in 2023. Lee Kang-in remained a bench member for the club for the next two seasons and things did not go well. He started only 18 games in the league, the same number as his first season. He scored six goals, twice as many as last season."

At the time, the media said, "Lee wants to play in more games, especially big matches. However, he has remained silent since his team won. The club and the players will discuss the future of the players after the end of the season," adding, "PSG is open to selling Lee Kang-in at the price they want."
