National team midfielder Lee Kang-in, who joined French professional football Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), started the team’s pre-season game, but was replaced due to an injury, raising concerns.
PSG won 2-0 in the pre-season match against Le Havre AC held in Paris, France on the 22nd (Korean time).
Le Havre is a team that has been promoted to the French professional football league 1 this season.
In the team’s first preseason game of the season, Lee Kang-in played as a starter and played until the end of the first half before being replaced.
PSG scored the winning goal in the 8th minute of the second half by Hugo Ekitike, and in the extra time of the second half, Kylian Mbappe scored a key goal.
However, in the 43rd minute of the first half, Lee Kang-in felt uncomfortable with his right leg and withdrew to the bench.
In the case of a hamstring injury, which is more than a leg muscle, it usually takes more than two weeks, so it may disrupt preparations for the start of the 2023-2024 season.
The PSG squad will depart for Japan on the 22nd for an East Asia tour in Korea and Japan.
Lee Kang-in was once included in the Japanese tour list. PSG will play a pre-season match against Al Nasr (Saudi Arabia) in Japan on the 25th.
However, it may be difficult to participate in the East Asian Tour if you are not in good physical condition. In Korea, PSG will face K-League team Jeonbuk Hyundai in Busan on August 3.
Mbappe, who had a conflict with the team over the recent contract extension, was substituted in the 21st minute of the second half and even scored a goal in extra time in the second half.
Mbappe was excluded from the list of players participating in the East Asian tour.
