In a statement published on its official website this Tuesday afternoon, PSG announced Kang-In Lee’s injury. The South Korean international will not be part of Luis Enrique’s squad for the club’s next two matches.
Despite his undeniable talent on the field, Kang-In Lee, the South Korean international of Paris Saint-Germain, seems to be struggling to avoid injuries this summer. Having already been injured during the summer period, the player finds himself once again facing physical setbacks. Starting in the first two matches of the season, the former Mallorca player showed promising signs and demonstrated his full potential. Unfortunately, he won’t be able to take his place on the field in the upcoming crucial matches for the reigning French champion.
The Paris Saint-Germain officially announced the news in a statement. “Suffering from a left quadriceps injury, Kang-In Lee will remain under treatment at least until the end of the next international break,” the club said. This announcement suggests that the player will miss the upcoming clashes against RC Lens and Olympique Lyonnais, two formidable rivals in Ligue 1. Furthermore, his availability for the match against Nice after the international break is also uncertain.
This is a blow for the player, but also for his coach Luis Enrique, who will have to do without one of his key players at the start of the season. As a reminder, PSG has not yet secured a victory in Ligue 1 this season, after two matchdays. Held to a draw by Lorient (0-0) in the opening match of the championship, Kylian Mbappé’s teammates were once again held to a draw last weekend by Toulouse (1-1).
