[골닷컴] Reporter Kim Dong-ho = Atletico Madrid, a prestigious club in Spain, is showing interest in signing Lee Kang-in.
According to Spanish journalist Matteo Moreto, several teams are competing for Lee Kang-in. Brighton and Aston Villa in the Premier League, and Atletico Madrid are said to be the candidates among the Spanish La Liga teams.
Atletico Madrid is one of Spain’s most prestigious clubs. It is one of the top three clubs in La Liga, along with Real Madrid and Barcelona. They have won 11 La Liga titles, 10 Copa del Rey titles and 3 Europa League titles. Most recently, it is a team that succeeded in winning La Liga in the 2020-21 season.
However, Mallorca has no intention of sending Lee Kang-in. In particular, in the contract between Lee Kang-in and Mallorca, the buyout is set at 17 million euros (approximately 22.8 billion won). The idea is to send Lee Kang-in only for a transfer fee that meets the buyout unconditionally.
Lee Kang-in is recording 2 goals and 4 assists in 18 games (15 starts) in the Spanish Primera Liga this season, with his outstanding skills, sharp kicks and creativity. He is showing off a huge influence on the ground, not just an attack point.
Spanish media reports that “Lee Kang-in and his agent want Mallorca to negotiate with another team.” With only 5 days left in the winter transfer market, Lee Kang-in’s future is heating up.
