Having had a good start to the season, South Korean international Kang-in Lee spoke about his acclimatization to his new position within the Paris Saint-Germain attack.

Kang-in Lee has had an encouraging start to the season with Paris Saint-Germain. In 10 appearances for Paris this season, the versatile South Korean striker has already found the net 4 times. The former Mallorca player benefits in particular from the confidence of his coach Luis Enrique, who does not hesitate to align him as a false nine at the forefront of the Parisian attack.

A trained playmaker, Kang-in Lee was even preferred to Randal Kolo Muani to start the matches against Rennes (3-1 victory) in Ligue 1 and against Arsenal (2-0 defeat) in the Champions League. During this Monday’s press conference, before the clash against PSV Eindhoven in C1, the native of Incheon spoke about his new role and the instructions of the Asturian coach.

Kang-in Lee only has one thing in mind

“Every time I play as number 9, Luis Enrique requires a lot of mobility from me. I think it’s good. I believe we can create spaces and opportunities. With this freedom, we can manage to get more chances and score more goals”Kang-in estimated Lee.

Asked about his favorite position, the 2023 summer recruit from PSG replied: “The job I like the most? It’s simply about playing, all players want to play, regardless of position. No matter how I use it, I’m going to give it my all. »
