Juventus shows interest in Lee Kang-in: Brahim Diaz as a possible alternative

Juventus have targeted Lee Kang-in from Paris Saint-Germain. Talks between the Bianconeri and PSG are ongoing: the South Korean playmaker received less than 2,000 minutes of playing time under Luis Enrique last season. Despite winning 11 titles, he could be looking for a new challenge in Turin. After the last two Champions League finals, which he watched from the bench, the transfer between Turin and Paris, which is already being discussed for Randal Kolo Muani, could now also become hotter for the talent Kang-in.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the player's profile, born in 2001, fits exactly the needs of Luciano Spalletti, who is desperately looking for quality, unpredictability and talent to enliven the Bianconeri's attack. His name is at the top of the list, especially as a luxurious alternative to Brahim Diaz. The former Milan player is also currently on duty at the World Cup in the USA and will only choose his future club after the tournament when he finds out what role José Mourinho wants him to play at Real Madrid.



Diaz's priority is to continue his career in the Spanish capital, but if his playing time continues to decline next season, interest from Juventus could prompt him to consider a move. While the situation surrounding Brahim Diaz is still unclear, interest in Lee Kang-in is becoming more and more tangible. For Juventus he would be a valuable reinforcement for Spalletti's tactical concept, which could provide the missing creativity in the offensive.

In parallel to the negotiations with PSG for Kolo Muani, where there are positive signals regarding the transfer fee, contacts between the two clubs are becoming easier. The coming days will be crucial to see which of the two players will boost the Old Lady's summer transfer market.
