[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Min Jun-young] Lee Kang-in (19, Valencia) has been reported by French and Spanish media to be on the transfer target lists of French Ligue 1 clubs.

French media outlet L'Equipe reported on the 7th (Korean time) that "Marseille is looking to sign Lee Kang-in from Valencia during the summer transfer window."

According to the report, Marseille expressed that if Lee Kang-in performs well, they want to acquire full ownership, including a permanent transfer option.

France Football also reported, "Marseille is trying to secure good talents in the transfer market, and Lee Kang-in could be one of them."

Marseille is not the only team interested in Lee Kang-in.

France Football introduced that Nice is also monitoring Lee Kang-in.

Spanish media AS also mentioned the possibility of Lee Kang-in moving to the French league.

However, AS reported that the club targeting Lee Kang-in is not Marseille but Bordeaux, where Hwang Ui-jo plays.

AS stated, "France is tempting Lee Kang-in," and "As already known, Lee Kang-in wants to leave his team to find more opportunities."

Previously, Lee Kang-in led South Korea to the runner-up position at the '2019 Poland U20 World Cup' and won the Best Player award.

However, this season he has only appeared in 18 matches due to injuries and losing out in the competition for a starting position.
