A European local report has been reported that Spain’s professional football giant FC Barcelona is paying attention to the Korean attacking resource Kang-in Lee (20, Valencia).

Spanish media Don Balon reported on the 25th that “Juan Laporta, who is challenging the next chairman of Barcelona, ​​is strategically considering recruiting Lee Kang-in.” La Porta was the chairman of Barcelona from 2003 to 2010, and was at the forefront of Barcelona. During his tenure as President of La Porta, Barcelona won the Primera Liga (4 times), Copa del Rey (1), Supercopa de España (3), European Champions League (2), European Football Federation Super Cup (1), International He swept a total of 12 championship cups in various competitions such as the Football Federation Club World Cup (once).

After former chairman Joseph Maria Bartomeu resigned in October last year after having a conflict with the star Lionel Messi, Barcelona is working on the election of a new president. Bartomeu’s rival, Laporta, is ranked first in the new chairman.

Barcelona’s biggest challenge is the renewal of star Messi, but the reorganization of the squad cannot be delayed. This season, they lost the European Champions League (16-finals) and Copa del Rey (4-finals) side by side in the first leg, and were on the verge of being eliminated. In the Primera Liga, the gap between lead Atletico Madrid, who played one less game, is 5 points.

Don Balon said, “We appreciate the potential and the marketing effect is expected to be great when it is recruited,” as Barcelona is paying attention to Lee Kang-in. He added, “Barcelona expects Lee Kang-in to grow into a world-class player.”

Don Balon said, “Barcelona believes that Kang-in Lee has greater potential than Japanese midfielder Gubo Takefusa, signed by Real Madrid. It is also a positive factor that Lee Kang-in has no difficulty in communication or cultural adaptation in Spain since 2011.”
