Juventus have entered the race for Kang-in Lee, giving Paris Saint-Germain a potentially useful transfer lever as Atletico Madrid continue to work on a deal for the South Korea international.
PSG Talk, citing reports around the developing market, claims Juventus have now joined the chase for Lee, whose future has been under scrutiny while Atletico push to bring him back to La Liga. Get French Football News also reported earlier this week that the Serie A giants were ready to step into the race.
PSG Handed Stronger Kang-in Lee Position
The timing matters. Atletico have already been framed in Spain as the club most aligned with Lee, with AS reporting that the player, Atletico and PSG all have a willingness to make the operation happen. The unresolved point is the fee, with PSG seeking a stronger return than Atletico’s preferred structure.
That is where Juventus change the tone of the negotiation. Lee is not an unwanted squad filler. He is a technically sharp, versatile attacker with World Cup visibility, a contract running to 2028, and enough commercial pull in Asia to keep his valuation sturdy.
For PSG, a second serious suitor reduces the danger of being dragged into a single-buyer negotiation. ReadPSG has already covered how Atletico’s interest placed Lee close to a possible exit, but Juventus entering the picture could now help Paris hold the line.
Luis Enrique’s squad-building question remains simple: if Lee leaves, PSG need the fee to reflect his profile, not just his minutes. Juventus may have arrived late, but their presence could be exactly what strengthens PSG’s hand.
