Manchester United have received a major boost in signing Paris Saint-Germain attacking midfielder Lee Kang-in during the summer transfer window. The 24-year-old has played an important role for PSG under the rotation policy, playing in several positions under Luis Enrique.
PSG have already secured the Ligue 1, Coupe De France and Trophee Des Champions this season in a spectacular campaign. The French giant will face Inter Milan in the Champions League final after convincingly beating Arsenal in the semifinal ties.
Meanwhile, United have experienced a forgettable season, ending in 16th position in the Premier League and losing the Europa League. To make things worse, their archrivals, Liverpool, secured the Premier League title and equalled them in total League titles tally.
The Red Devils are also facing a strong financial implication due to their inflated wage expenses and frivolous past spending. United have to operate smartly in the transfer market, using opportunities to add quality that Ruben Amorim’s tactical style requires.
According to CaughtOffside, United have received a major boost in signing Paris SG attacking midfielder Lee during the summer window. The 24-year-old wants to become a first-team regular at a club, instead of playing only a squad role in rotation.
The South Korean has made 45 appearances for PSG in all competitions this season, contributing six goals and six assists. The 24-year-old played as a right winger, attacking midfielder, left winger, central midfielder and even as a centre-forward when required.
The current Man United squad struggled to adjust to Amorim’s tactical demands, which played a big mitigating factor last season. Lee’s ability to play in any position and under any tactical demand could help Amorim utilise him regularly next season.
