Arsenal are exploring ways to strengthen their attack for the second half of the 2024-25 season, with their focus shifting to a Paris Saint-Germain player—though it’s not Randal Kolo Muani.
Moreover, the Gunners face competition from another Premier League club. According to a recent report from The Athletic, Arsenal are interested in signing Kang-in Lee on loan with an option to buy.
The South Korean midfielder is said to be open to a new challenge. However, PSG value Lee highly on and off the pitch and are reluctant to let him go. If he were to push for a move, the French club would reportedly demand at least €44 million for his transfer.
Another Premier League club are keen on Kang-in Lee?
Despite the interest from Arsenal, journalist Matteo Moretto reports that Manchester United are keeping an eye on Lee’s situation at PSG.

Meanwhile, L’Équipe’s Loïc Tanzi reported that PSG have no plans to sell Lee Kang-in. The club would only consider offers exceeding €50 million. As for Lee, he is aware of the interest from other clubs but isn’t looking to leave anytime soon.
Since joining the Ligue 1 side from RCD Mallorca, Lee has made 60 appearances in all competitions. The South Korean has netted 11 goals and provided seven assists during his time with the French club.
