Lee Kang-in, the 22-year-old attacking midfielder, played in the Round of 16 match at the Asian Games against Kyrgyzstan.
The South Korean U23 team won the match 5-1, with Lee playing for 60 minutes. The next match is scheduled for October 1st in the quarter-finals.
Kang In Lee is expected to return to Paris in good shape. He played 60 minutes in the match, after only playing for 30 minutes in the previous game, in accordance with PSG’s agreement.
South Korea will face a tough challenge in the quarter-finals, as they will play against the host nation, China. The match will take place on Sunday at 2:00 PM. It’s worth noting that if South Korea wins the competition, Kang-In Lee could potentially have his mandatory military service shortened, which is of great interest to PSG.
