When the biggest 'shock' free agent signing isn't a national team cut...or even an injury, why?

FA's Choi Dropped from the National Team? It's Not Even an Injury?

It's a surprise. While the other exclusions were expected and foreshadowed, no one expected the lock to be left out.

The final 28-man roster for the Premier12 was announced on Sunday. Head coach Ryu Jung-il named a 35-man training roster, and from the 34 players, excluding Koo Ja-uk (Samsung), who was unable to join the squad due to a knee injury, the final six players were selected.

The six players eliminated were pitchers Kim Si-hoon (NC), Uhm Sang-baek (KT), Jeon Sang-hyun (KIA), Cho Min-seok (Sangsung), catcher Han Jun-soo (KIA), and infielder Kim Young-woong (Samsung).

Kim Si-hoon and Cho Min-seok were added during training, so they had a high chance of being eliminated. In the case of Jeon Sang-hyun, the bullpen was very strong and the competition was high due to the presence of closers from each team. Catchers Park Dong-won (LG) and Kim Hyung-joon (NC) were also very likely to be selected, while Kim Young-woong was injured.

But Eom Sang-baek is a shocker. The national team is currently experiencing selection difficulties. Moon Dong-joo (Hanwha), Won Tae-in (Samsung), and Son Ju-young (LG) are out with injuries, leaving the team with no one to throw. It got to the point where they called up Lim Chan-kyu (LG) in a hurry.

In the meantime, there was Uhm Sang-baek, who was expected to take over one of the starting spots. He won 13 games this season and ranked sixth in strikeouts among foreign players. He became a free agent after this season and is currently holding the title of 'biggest free agent'.

The question is, why did he drop out of the national team? We checked several sources and found nothing wrong with his body. In the end, it came down to the fact that he was outclassed by the competition in terms of technique and style.

Ryu Jung-il Ho has five games in the Group B qualifiers in Taiwan, so at first, the scenario of the starting five taking one game each was a possibility. However, the team only needed four starters for the first game against Taiwan and the last game against Australia. If Uhm Sang-baek came in last in the competition for the starting spot, then the remaining starter could be used in a 1+1 concept, and Uhm Sang-baek would have lost out to another candidate in the competition for the +1 spot.

In any case, Uhm Sang-baek was able to focus on free agency negotiations with a clear mind.

“We could sign another contract” First time ever to hit 30 billion! Choi goes beyond 500 home runs and looks to 600

SSG Landers' Choi Jung, 37, has signed a contract that will go down in history.

SSG announced on the 6th that it has signed free agent Choi Jung, the team's symbol and franchise star. He signed a four-year, 11 billion won ($3 billion in signing bonus and $8 billion in annual salary), fully guaranteed contract. With this contract, Choi will be able to continue his active career until 2028, opening the upcoming Cheongna era with the organization,” the team announced.

Choi is an iconic franchise star who joined SK (now SSG) as the first overall pick in the 2005 rookie draft and played for SSG for 20 years. He has been the league's leading home run hitter in his KBO career, batting .2293 with 495 home runs, 1561 RBIs, 1461 runs scored, 178 stolen bases, and a .922 OPS in 7892 games. This year, he broke the KBO's all-time home run record, surpassing the 467 home runs hit by Doosan's Lee Seung-yup during his career. He is five home runs away from becoming the first player in KBO history to hit 500 home runs.

Choi turned 37 years old this season, and despite his age, he showed no signs of rust. In 129 games, he batted .291 (136-for-468) with 37 home runs, 107 RBI, 93 runs scored, and a .978 OPS, ranking third in the league in home runs, ninth in RBI, and fifth in OPS. There were speculations that a team could target Choi, who is eligible for Class C free agency after the season, but SSG was able to secure him with a fully guaranteed contract worth 11 billion won.

Choi said, “First of all, I want to thank the club for opening the negotiation table with such good conditions. This is the team I've grown up with since I was a rookie, and it's my favorite team. It took a long time to negotiate, but I had a strong desire to stay. I'm glad that the contract was finalized in a good way. It feels good. I would like to apologize to the fans for the long negotiation period, and I will do my best to play for the team during the contract period,” he said.

Choi, who had signed two previous free agency contracts in November 2014 for four years worth 8.6 billion won and a six-year maximum contract worth 10.6 billion won in 2018 for a cumulative total of 19.2 billion won, ranking fourth on the all-time list after Yang Ji (Doosan, 27.7 billion won), Kim Kwang-hyun (SSG, 23.6 billion won), and Kim Hyun-soo (LG, 23.3 billion won), quickly moved to the top of the list with a cumulative total of 30.2 billion won with the four-year, 11 billion won contract. He also became the first player in KBO history to exceed 30 billion won in free agency contracts.

Choi said, “In a way, I'm really proud and honored of myself, and I think it's the result of my hard work without any major injuries. I will not rest on my laurels and will do my best to become a better player in the future,” he said.

SSG President Kim Jae-hyun said in an interview before the signing, “This may not be the last contract for Choi Jung-jeong. I might do it one more time. I hope to sign one more contract. I have 17 years of professional experience and nearly 40 years of baseball experience, but it's not easy to meet a player like him. I hope he continues to play well in the future,” said Choi, wishing him a long career.

Choi is on pace to break the KBO's home run record and is expected to hit 500 home runs next season. “I have five left, so if I don't break it next season, it will be an accident,” Choi said. ”So I want 500 home runs to come naturally, and I want it to be a record that comes naturally while playing.” “My bigger goal is 600 home runs. I'm more motivated now that I have a goal. It makes me want to do better. I will play harder with a goal of 600 homers rather than 500 homers,” he said.

Fans were ecstatic that Choi will remain SSG's franchise star forever. Fans are eagerly waiting to see what else Choi will accomplish in the rest of his career.

“Hanwha signs free agent Shim Woo-jun for ‘4 years, up to 5 billion won’

The Hanwha Eagles have opened their wallets again.

On July 7, Hanwha announced, “We signed free agent infielder Shim Woo-joon. The contract is worth up to 5 billion won (4.2 billion won guaranteed, 800 million won option) for four years.”

Shim joined the KT Wiz in the second round of the 2014 draft (14th overall) and made his first-team debut in 2015.

In every season except for 2023 and the first half of 2024, when he played for the Sangmu, Shim has played in more than 100 games and has a career batting average of .254 with 275 RBIs and 156 stolen bases (0.788 stolen base percentage) in 1072 games. In the postseason, he didn't get many hits, but he also played stellar defense.

“The addition of Woo-Joon Shim strengthens our infield depth by providing us with a stable shortstop with the quick feet and operational skills we are looking for in the field,” Hanwha said.

This is the third consecutive year Hanwha has brought in a free agent from outside the organization. In 2022, the team brought in Chae Eun-sung from Itaewyang Oh Seon-jin for a total of 11.9 billion won, and last year it signed Ahn Chi-hong for a total of 7.2 billion won. This is a strong indication of the team's intention to play fall baseball as it enters the “new stadium era” after this season.

“Woo-jun Shim has the ability to play more than 100 games a season and be the mainstay of the center field next season with his steady and reliable defense,” said Hanwha general manager Son Hyuk. ”With the introduction of the pitch clock, he will be able to put pressure on the opposing pitcher when he is on base, which will help the team in various ways.”

Shim is also determined to use his strengths in defense and base running to help the team achieve its goal of becoming a prestigious club. “I am very grateful to the Hanwha Eagles for their good evaluation,” said Shim. ”As a free agent player, I will take on more responsibility and show a good performance on the field to help the team win more games.”

The winning bidder for Ryu Hyun-jin's ML All-Star inaugural jersey...“I'll start now, take it one step at a time”

A top prize of 21 million won.

The Ryu Hyun-jin Foundation held the “Shinhan Premier Ryu Hyun-jin Foundation Charity Golf Tournament with Shinhan Bank” (hereinafter referred to as the “Charity Golf Tournament”) at the Bella 45 Country Club in Hwaseong, Gangwon-do on April 4.

The charity golf tournament, which aims to foster youth baseball dreamers and raise funds to support children with rare and incurable diseases, was attended by Yong Woon-ho Yong, Group President of Shinhan Bank and Kim Sang-beom, Chairman of Issu Group, as well as sports stars such as Park Chan-ho, Kim Tae-gyun, Yoon Seok-min, Kim Ha-neul, Kim Biwoo, Woo Ji-won, Moon Kyung-eun, Lee Hyung-taek, and many entertainment stars such as Baek Ji-young Kim Jun-ho, Cha Tae-hyun, In Gyo-jin, Ji Hee Jin-hee, Son Ji-chang, Kim Kwang-kyu, Kim Sun-ah, Kim Min-kyung, Oh Yoon-ah, Seven, Lee Jong-hyuk, Hong In-gyu, and Seo Kyung-seok.

The charity golf tournament began with a welcome speech by Chairman Ryu Hyun-jin, followed by the main game, awards ceremony, and an auction to raise funds for charity.

The awards ceremony and auction were hosted by comedian Byun Gi-soo. Kim Kwang-hyun (SSG Landers) donated a glove, Kim Bio Pro donated a Circle T putter, the Hanwha Eagles donated an autographed bat, and Lee Jung-hoo (San Francisco Giants) donated an authentic jersey.

Among the auction items, a framed jersey worn by Ryu Hyun-jin when he trained for the 2019 Major League Baseball All-Star Game was the highest bidder (21 million won).

He was the first Asian player to be selected as a starting pitcher in the Major League Baseball All-Star Game, and the fact that he wore the jersey during training added to its value. In addition, the LA Dodgers spring training jersey worn by Ryu was a big hit, fetching 13 million won.

A GIMBIO Pro putter also drew a lot of interest from bidders and was sold for 15 million won.

The proceeds from the auction will be used to support youth baseball dreamers and children with rare and incurable diseases.

At the charity golf tournament awards ceremony, Mr. Park Chan-ho, Chairman of the Scholarship Foundation, was named the medalist after shooting a one-under par 71. “Thank you for inviting me to participate in the charity golf tournament organized by baseball junior Ryu Hyun-jin,” said Park, ”It was a pleasure to be part of such a meaningful occasion.” Commentator Park Jae-hong won the Shin Ferio championship, and actress Go Won-hee won the longest women's tournament with 195 meters and actor Ji Jin-hee won the men's tournament with 238 meters.

“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone who participated in the Ryu Hyun Jin Foundation Charity Golf Tournament,” said Dr. Ryu Hyun Jin, Chairman of the Board of Directors. ”We are very pleased that we were able to sponsor young dreamers and children with rare and incurable diseases through this tournament.” “We're just getting started, and there's a lot of work to be done. However, we will not rush, and we will take steps one by one so that we can build a strong and solid foundation,” he said.

The Ryu Hyun-jin Foundation, a non-profit foundation established in September 2023 with the motto 'Dream + Love + Sharing', will conduct social contribution activities to spread warmth to those in need.

The charity golf tournament was sponsored by Shinhan Bank, Shinhan Premier, Target Welllife, Issu Group, Spyder, Duciana, I Bag your pardon, Capliner, Stance, True Temper, Youngcheon Cinema, and Seoul Doctor Han Dental.

The charity golf tournament will be televised live on MBC SportsPlus at 6 p.m. on the 16th.

'Kim Hyun-soo surpasses Kim Hyun-soo' 121 RBIs, new LG record, team first for non-Bokboks “Records are important, but winning as a team is more meaningful”

Austin, a foreign-born hitter for the LG Twins of the Korean Baseball Organization, has set a new RBI record for the LG franchise. He broke the record for most RBIs in a season.

Austin started at first base three times against Hanwha on July 7 at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul. He went 2-for-4 with two doubles and three RBIs, giving him 121 RBIs for the season. The 121 RBI is the most in a single season for LG. It broke the previous record of 119 set by Chae Eun-sung in 2018 and Kim Hyun-soo in 2020. LG snapped a two-game losing streak with the 9-3 victory.

Austin opened the scoring in the first inning with an infield hit that deflected off the pitcher's glove and toward the shortstop. Moon Bo-kyung hit a straight line drive to second base, but the runner was late to the plate and was thrown out at second for a double play.

In the third inning, Moon came to the plate with one out. Leadoff hitter Hong Chang-ki singled, advanced to second on a wild pitch and third on Kim Hyun-soo's grounder to first. Austin grounded out to shortstop, allowing the runner to score from third. Austin tied the LG franchise record for most RBIs in a season with 119.

In the fifth inning, Austin drew a walk against Kim Seo-hyun. She then stole second and scored on Oh's RBI double.

Austin, who was retired on an infield grounder in the seventh inning, lined a single to right-center with runners on second and third in the eighth to bring home both runners. It was a two-run shot that made it 9-1 and gave him 121 RBIs on the season, the most in a single season in LG history.

“The record is important, but it means more that the team won the game,” Austin told Team First after the game.

“I tried not to think about it (the franchise single-season RBI record), but when I didn't get a hit for a while (after 118), I was secretly nervous because people were asking me when I was going to break the record. Now that I don't have to think about the record, I feel like I can play baseball without pressure,” he said of his new record.

As for the KBO record for most RBIs in a season (Park Byung-ho's 146 in 2015), Austin said, “I think I need one more season like August to break it, but I think it might backfire if I focus too much on my personal record, so I'm just trying to focus on helping the team win.”

In 24 games in August, Austin went 30-for-66 with 36 doubles, nine home runs, 35 RBIs and a 1.160 OPS. He led the league in home runs, RBI, on-base percentage, and OPS. He is in the running for the KBO August MVP award.

6 innings, 2 home runs, 4 earned runs, and the manager gives him the thumbs up? “Most reliable” Why?

Kim Yoon-ha of the Kiwoom Heroes suffered his sixth loss of the season.

Kim started against the Gwangju KIA on May 5 and pitched six innings. However, he gave up six runs (four earned) on eight hits and one walk, including two home runs. Since earning his first win on July 25 against Doosan, he has lost five straight starts. He hasn't gotten a win in seven appearances.

However, Kiwoom manager Hong Won-ki gave Kim a thumbs-up for his pitching.

“Yesterday was the most stable of his previous six or seven appearances,” Hong said of Kim's pitching.

Looking at the game, Hong's assessment was not unreasonable. After giving up a leadoff single to Park Chan-ho in the top of the first inning, Kim retired the next three batters in order. He retired the next three batters in order in the second inning, and then faced a double and a walk in the bottom of the third inning. In the fourth, after a leadoff walk, he induced a double play to get out of the inning in three batters. But in the bottom of the fifth, two fielding errors allowed two runs to score, and in the sixth, a three-run blast by Han Jun-soo put their heads down.

“If the two defensive plays in the fifth inning had helped us, we would have gone to the sixth or seventh inning without giving up a run. But we didn't, and as the number of pitches increased, so did the number of runs.” ‘The content was good, and the pitching plan was good because we talked about it directly with the catcher,’ Hong said. “I think I'm accumulating know-how as I play, which is very positive,” he said.

Kim Yoon-ha was selected in the first round of the 2024 rookie draft. Despite being a rookie, he is showing signs of promise as a starter. That's something to be hopeful about for a team that has been struggling with its starting lineup.

Ohtani won't win if he keeps this up, Dodgers starting lineup 'riddled' with 12th injury

The Los Angeles Dodgers have suffered another injury. The team's winningest pitcher (11 wins), Gavin Stone (26), who has been the only starter to stay in the rotation all season, has been placed on the disabled list. Shohei Ohtani's (30) championship bid is also in jeopardy, as he is out for the season with no timetable for a return.

The Dodgers placed Stone on the 15-day disabled list ahead of a home game against the Cleveland Indians on Sunday. Right shoulder inflammation. Stone felt soreness in his shoulder after leaving a game against the Arizona Diamondbacks on April 1, and after resting, he was examined and found to have inflammation.

Stone joins Clayton Kershaw (shoulder/toe), Tyler Glasnow (back/elbow), Yoshinobu Yamamoto (shoulder), Walker Buehler (hip), Bobby Miller (shoulder), Michael Grove (intercostal), Kyle Hurt (shoulder) and Ryan Brazeiro (calf) as the Dodgers have nine pitchers on the disabled list with at least one start this year. Add in pitchers like Tony Gonsolin (elbow), Dustin May (esophagus) and Emmitt Scherzer (elbow), who are out for the season without throwing a pitch, and you have 12 pitchers on the disabled list.

According to local media outlets, including MLB.com, Stone is not guaranteed to return for the rest of the season. Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman said of Stone's return, “I don't know. I think he's going to do everything he can, but there's so many unknowns. It's hard to speculate at this point.”

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said, “Stone won't be able to throw for at least 10 days,” adding, “This has been a growth year for him. “This was a year of growth for him, and he did a lot for the team to be an All-Star. It will be disappointing to not see him pitch the rest of the season.”

In his first full season, Stone went 11-5 with a 3.53 ERA and 116 strikeouts in 140⅓ innings over 25 games. He led the Dodgers in starts and innings pitched with the only double-digit wins on the team. Stone was a steady presence in a Dodgers starting rotation that was riddled with injuries throughout the season.

Despite his postseason inexperience, he was expected to be a mainstay of the Dodgers' rotation in fall baseball, but shoulder inflammation threatened to shut him down for the season. In addition to Stone, the Dodgers have a number of other starters on the disabled list, including Glassnow (elbow tendinitis), Yamamoto (rotator cuff injury), and Kershaw (big toe inflammation).

Yamamoto is scheduled to return on April 11 against the Cubs, but the rest of the pitchers are still in doubt. Glassnow will see the results of a bullpen session on Aug. 8. “We don't know who's going to make it and who's not going to make it,” Roberts said, adding that it's been a ”really tough year for pitchers with injuries.”

“The next three weeks are going to be a critical time for the Dodgers,” Roberts told MLB.com. They will continue to evaluate their starting pitchers and figure out how to best utilize their pitching staff going forward. The Dodgers suffered a major blow to their starting rotation last October, and while they're trying to avoid a second straight year of this, they've taken another big hit with Stone's departure.

The starting rotation now consists of Zack Flaherty, Walker Buehler, and Bobby Miller. Buehler and Miller have struggled all season, so there's no clear-cut starter outside of transfer Flaherty. It's doubtful that the injured pitchers will be able to pitch normally when they return. For now, Yamamoto is expected to pitch 2-3 innings with a pitch count limit in his return. For Glassnow and Kershaw, whose returns are slower, there's no guarantee of a solid buildup to the postseason. With question marks hanging over their most important starters in the short-term, the Dodgers' championship hopes are slowly being clouded.

The rest of the regular season is also a concern. In the midst of a two-game losing streak, center fielder Teoscar Hernandez left Sunday's game in Cleveland after being hit in the left ankle by a first-pitch slider from right-hander Matthew Boyd in the first inning. Hernandez, who was immediately replaced by a pinch-hitter, was initially listed as having a bruise but will likely be placed on the disabled list.

Roberts said, “The pain usually subsides after the game, but I'm worried because it's bad. He could barely move his foot, so we'll see how it goes over the next couple days,” Roberts said. Despite being in first place in the National League West, the Dodgers can't rest until the end, as the second-place San Diego Padres are four games back. With San Diego's head-to-head advantage, the actual gap between the two teams is three games.

'Wasteful foul home run' Ohtani, one-inning, two-out humiliation...4-hit, no-hit shutout, Dodgers win

Shohei Ohtani (30-LA Dodgers), who is chasing the first 50-homer, 50-double season in Major League Baseball history, was disappointed by a foul ball in his first at-bat. He went hitless in the inning, drawing a walk with two outs.

Ohtani, who had blasted his 45th home run of the season the previous day (July 7) against Cleveland, was silent today, dropping his season batting average from 2-for-9 to 2-for-8 (160 hits in 553 at-bats). His OPS also dropped from .993 to .986.

With 20 games left in the Dodgers' season, Ohtani is on pace for 51 homers and 52 steals.

Facing Cleveland right-hander Gavin Williams in his first at-bat in the bottom of the first inning, Ohtani hit the first pitch he saw for a huge foul ball that just cleared the right-field foul pole. He then hit a 99.3 mph (159.8 km/h) four-seam fastball five pitches outside on a 2B-2S pitch count, but it was grounded out to the shortstop.

The Dodgers bats had scored six runs in the bottom of the first inning, and when Ohtani came to bat for the second time in the inning, the Cleveland pitching staff had changed. Against right-hander Pedro Avila, Ohtani worked a full count and grounded out to second base. He took Avila's seventh pitch, a low, 91-mph (146.5-kilometer) four-seam fastball, and hit it hard, but it was a grounder in front of the second baseman.

With two outs in the inning, Ohtani struck out swinging in his third at-bat in the top of the fourth. In a seven-pitch battle with right-hander Scott Barlow, he swung at an 81.3 mph (130.8 km/h) slider that was low and away from his body.

His fourth at-bat in the bottom of the sixth was wasted. He drove a two-seam high slider from left-hander Erik Sabroski well outside the zone, but it was caught in front of the left-field fence. The ball traveled 348 feet (106.1 meters) at 101.2 mph (162.9 km/h).

The Dodgers won the game 7-2.

The Dodgers broke the game open with a six-run first inning, highlighted by Tommy Edmon's two-run double to left, Gavin Lux's sacrifice fly to left field, Miguel Rojas' RBI single to right and Andy Fajardo's 10th mid-month home run of the season. Cleveland starter Williams was pulled early after allowing five runs on two hits and three walks in ⅔ of an inning, dropping to 8-3 on the season.

Mookie Betts hit his 16th solo home run of the season in the bottom of the fourth inning, and the Dodgers used a bullpen day to combine for two runs in nine innings from seven pitchers, including starter Ryan Braazer (one inning), Michael Grove (two runs in one inning), Justin Robleski (two runs in two innings), Blake Treinen (one run in one inning), Alex Vecchia (one run in one inning), Michael Kopeck (one run in one inning) and Brent Honeywell Jr.

With their second straight win, the National League West-leading Dodgers improved to 85-57 (.599 winning percentage). The American League (AL) Central Division-leading Cleveland improved to 81-61 (.570 winning percentage).

Zvezda transfer Seol Young-woo scores 'magic girl goal' in Europe after just two games

Seol Young-woo, 25, scored his debut goal for Serbian League FK Zvezda in the summer transfer window after just two games.

Seol opened the scoring in the fourth round of the 2024-2025 Serbian Superliga against Novi Pazar at the Rajko Mitic Stadium in Belgrade, Serbia, on Nov. 11 (local time), scoring the game-winning goal in the European stage. The team went on to win 4-1.

With their second straight win, Zvezda are now unbeaten in their opening four matches (three wins, one draw) and lead the league with 10 points.

For the second straight match, Seol started at left fullback. He opened the scoring with a right-footed mid-range shot in the ninth minute of the first half at 0-0. He made his Superliga debut on April 4 against Tekstilac Odzac in the third round of the league.

Zvezda equalized six minutes into the second half, but then scored three more goals to secure the three-goal victory.

Teammate Hwang In-beom also played the full 90 minutes. While he didn't register an offensive point, he did set up the team's fourth goal in the 41st minute when he sent a loose pass down the left flank. Peter Oleynka connected with a cross that Jose Luis Rodriguez, who was in the goal area, headed home.

Meanwhile, Seol Young-woo joined Zvezda on June 30 from Ulsan HD.

Born in 1998, Seol can play both fullback positions. Prior to joining Zvezda, he played his entire professional career with Ulsan.

Seol made a name for himself on October 18, 2020, when he made a surprise start in the East Coast Derby against Ulsan's arch-enemy Pohang Steelers. His flawless performance in the match not only earned him a starting spot in his debut season, but also the Young Player Award (Rookie of the Year).

In total, he played 120 K League 1 games for Ulsan, scoring five goals and adding 11 assists.

Why the Saudis are coveting: 'The pace is different' Lee Kang-in's brilliance on the right side...and the team's 'highest rating'

It's definitely different. Lee Kang-In (21, Paris Saint-Germain) impressed in his final preseason game.

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) drew 1-1 with Leipzig in a pre-season friendly at the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig, Germany, on Monday (Nov. 11). Leipzig took the lead in the 13th minute through Lois Oppendahl, but PSG equalized in the 25th minute through Gonzalo Hamus.

Lee Kang-In started on the right wing in a 4-3-3 formation. He formed a trio with Ibrahim Mbaye and Randal Kolo Mouani. Marco Asensio-Vitinha-Warren Zairemery formed the back four, while Carlos Soler-Milan Skriniar-Willian Pacho-Yoram Zagh formed the defense. Gianluigi Donnarumma pulled on the goalkeeping gloves.

Leipzig also fielded a number of first-team players. Loic Oppenda-Yusuf Poulsen, Xavi Simons-Nicholas Sierwald-Adou Adara-Elif Elmas, Davit Rahm-Willie Orban-Mohamed Simakan-Lucas Klosterman, and Peter Gulacic started up front.

Lee moved between the center and the flanks, mainly on the right, and he was diligent in his movements, constantly carrying the defense. He was constantly running up and down the defense and working diligently.

When he saw an opportunity, Lee took it, slipping sharp passes into the back of the defense and delivering crosses in front of the goal, most notably a sharp ground-ball cross to the onrushing Kolo Moani that almost looked like a goal. It was just a matter of finishing.

He also tried to score himself. Eight minutes into the second half, Lee cut in from the right to the center and fired a left-footed mid-range shot that was saved by the goalkeeper. He played the entirety of the second half on the left side, leading the team's attack.

Soccer stats outlet Sofa Score gave Lee a 7.0 rating, the highest among PSG's starting 11, as he created two chances, completed 93% of his passes (38/41) and won one dribble. He also sent in two crosses, one of which was successful.

This is the second consecutive game that Lee has started and played 72 minutes against Sturmgraz (Austria). He also started and played 72 minutes against Sturmgraz on August 8th. PSG drew 2-2.

On that occasion, Lee showed his talent in a new position. He played as a central midfielder in a 4-4-2 formation alongside Soler. Lee dropped low and was responsible for the buildup play. In effect, he was more of a defensive midfielder.

Despite the unfamiliarity of the position, Lee was Lee, and he played the role of midfield commander well, using his unique ability to break the opposition's pressure and disperse passes. He was also a force to be reckoned with in the tussle and competition.

The highest rated player of the match according to Couch Score was Lee Kang-in (7.6), who was a playmaker with a 96% pass success rate (45/47), one chance created, 100% dribbling success rate (2/2), and 83% long pass success rate (5/6). He also earned a passing grade on defense, winning 83% of his ground ball battles (10/12) and making two tackles.

Lee was able to transition well from defensive to offensive roles. His versatility in preseason should help him stand out in the fierce competition for a starting spot in the upcoming season.

PSG also recently acquired 2004-born João Neves from Benfica, who is one of Portugal's top central midfield prospects and is expected to slot right into the starting defensive midfield at PSG. Desiree Doué is also expected to join him in the attacking second line. Even without Doué, Lee will face competition from Vitinha, Fabian, Zaire Emery, and Ousmane Dembele.

Previously, Lee had received an offer from Saudi Arabia. According to French publication Foot Mercato, a Saudi team wants to make him the highest-paid player in the league. They want to pay him more than Cristiano Ronaldo (Al Nasr), who earns €200 million a year.

Of course, this is only the Saudi's wish, as Lee is one of PSG's current and future stars. “PSG have kept the door closed on the sale of Lee,” said Foot Mercato. The player is happy in France and has no strong desire to leave.” Lee will continue to play in a PSG shirt in the 2024-2025 season.
