Germain (PSG) have finally decided on a replacement for Lee Kang-in, who will be away at the Asian Cup in January. The main man is world-class midfielder Casemiro (Manchester United), who won numerous trophies with Real Madrid in the past.

France's Footsur7 reported on January 16 (KST), "PSG, who are looking to strengthen their midfield in the upcoming winter transfer window, are considering Casemiro. "PSG are looking for an experienced defensive midfielder to replace Warren Zaire Emery and Manuel Ugarte," and "Manchester United also want to sell Casemiro this winter. They are monitoring the situation of 31-year-old Brazilian international midfielder Casemiro."

"PSG are interested in Casemiro as the January transfer window approaches. United are planning to sell Casemiro and Jadon Sancho to raise funds." Sky Sports in the UK also reported that "PSG are keen on signing Casemiro". The Sun also reported that "United, who have two years left on Casemiro's contract, are planning to cash in on him this winter. PSG are interested in Casemiro."

PSG are looking to fill the void left by Lee Kang-in, who will leave the club in January for the Asian Cup. Of course, the two players have completely different personalities. Casemiro is not a direct replacement for Agholor. "Luis Enrique wants Casemiro to join the team in January when it is confirmed that Lee will leave," explained Futsur7. "Lee will play in the Asian Cup from the beginning of 2024 and Casemiro is likely to be the long-considered replacement.

According to the outlet, PSG's plan is not to play Casemiro in Lee's place, but rather to use him as a defensive midfielder and play more central midfielders like Carlos Soler, Zair Emery, and Vitinha. The idea is to take the pressure off Ugarte and give him more flexibility in the starting lineup.

One of PSG's top priorities is midfield. According to France's Le 10 Sport, "PSG's first priority is the midfield. They are looking for an experienced player in this position, where young players have been playing since the start of the season." "Left-back is not a consideration. Only an experienced midfielder is not ruled out."

"If we make any signings this winter, it will be in this position. "With all the injuries we've had in recent weeks and the departure of Lee Kang-In, we need reinforcements. An experienced midfielder will have to come in."PSG have been in the market for a midfield reinforcement early on. PSG coach Luis Enrique has reportedly asked the club to sign a world-class midfielder. Earlier this month, Le Parisien reported, "With recurring injuries in the midfield and the departure of Lee Kang-In in January, PSG are looking to sign a midfielder, and this has come at the request of Luis Enrique. Injuries to Warren Zaire Emery and Fabian Luis have opened the door for signings in the winter transfer window. He wants to bring in a proven and experienced midfielder in the January transfer window next year." 안전토토사이트 

With a number of players on the shortlist, Casemiro seems to be the man to sign. Casemiro has been heavily linked with United as well as PSG in recent days.

Meanwhile, Lee Kang-in, who is set to compete in the Asian Cup, has been criticized for his lackluster performances in his last three games. French soccer commentator Pierre Menes recently said, "Lee Kang-in doesn't have much personality. He dribbles a lot from the flanks but lacks the ability to pass forward. He is not at the level that PSG requires."

After missing a crucial chance against Borussia Dortmund, which earned him his lowest rating, he told Bleu in France, "Some players felt the pressure. They are not at the level to play in the Champions League in a team with ambitions, especially Lee Kang-in, who pretends to play an important role in a team like this."

Even without Kasemiru, the arrival of an experienced midfielder during the Asian Cup break will make the competition even more intense.
