Paris transfers: After the bomb, Mbappe suspended two players

The bombshell dropped by Kylian Mbappe occupies all the media and fans, but it doesn’t monopolize the reality of Paris, which continues its reinforcement moves for the new season.

The French champions have already signed Marco Asensio and Manuel Ugarte and all indications are that he will sign two more players.

Marca reported on Tuesday that the French club have reached an agreement with Mallorca over his transfer Kang In Lee. The French media speak of an amount of almost 20,000,000 euros including bonuses, with the release clause in the contract being 25,000,000.

The 22-year-old South Korea international plays as an attacking midfielder and comes from Valencia’s infrastructure departments. He went to the Balearic Islands as a free agent in the summer of 2021 and scored six goals and as many assists in La Liga last season.

But that’s not all, the Parisians also rely on his talent St Edward, which they expect to win as a free agent. The 18-year-old midfielder was born in Italy but has been at Benfica since 2020 and became the youngest player to feature in the B team, beating Joao Felix’s record.

Although there have been strong flirtations from England, the Italy Under-20 international has favored Paris as his next career stop after deciding to leave the Eagles in July as his contract expires.
