Lee Kang-In @ Valencia CF 2018-2019 [R]

As long as he doesn't go to something too big and too crowded.

Sooner he leaves Valencia, the better he is. Marcelino is clueless. Valencia will stick up someone with his release clause, but I'm sure Ajax has the money from all their players they been selling.

Probably the right fit for Ajax.

 

Isn't his clause 80 mill? As much as I ********in revere the kid there's no way he'll be bought for that much from who are basically a selling club. I hope he gets a loan.

 

Don't believe too much in these rumors, it's calciomercato time, we are in early June and every team has already "signed" 10 players so...

Also Valencia is not going to sell Kangin for less than the buyout clause, and Ajax is not going to spend 80m€ for a 18 y.o kid

After the WC, Valencia will meet with Kangin and we'll see what's the decision after that, then I'm sure in case Valencia decides to loan Kangin, there will be a lot clubs asking for him but firstly I think Kangin will do the first part of the preseason with Valencia and then we'll see, I don't see something happening until August tbh


Valencia fans are being very agressive with this topic, Kangin right now is the "apple of my eye" for the fans + the Isco episode is still present and Marcelino and the club need to be careful because it's doesn't matter if he wins the CL, if he makes this fanbase angry, watch out

 

LKI's value on transfermarkt just went up from 7.5 to 10mil Euros today. The U20 world cup is helping people realize him as a real talent.

 

Would love to see nothing more than LKI be successful in Valencia....but if the manager's use of him after signing the senior contract is any indication then...

 

He shud try to stay in Spain so he doesnt need to worry about things like language barriers, etc, so he can focus on football.

 

It’s just really unfortunate that Kangin worked so hard to make the first team at Valencia to only end up with a manager like Marcelino that has zero confidence in him and with a 4-4-2 system where his talents largely go to waste.

I hope he doesn’t see going on an assignment as a bad thing/step back. As brilliant as he is, there’s room for lots of improvement and any team where he can get adequate playing time against good competition will help him immensely. I reckon he’ll stay in Spain just because moving elsewhere and having to adapt to their culture and playing style might be too difficult and do more harm than good. Wherever he is, I hope he excels. Expectations are high and there’s a lot of pressure on him so I just hope all goes well.

 

One of the Korean journalists in Poland confirmed official offers from these clubs:

Ajax, PSV, Everton, Chelsea, Juventus, Atletico madrid.

He apparently talked to many scouts directly.

 

Chelsea are banned from the transfer market

 

i really freaking hope this is true

 

ooh...Atletico...but if moving I'd prefer Ajax

 

The contract extension was a club move because they knew Kangin was going to play the WC and that means exposure, imagine Kangin right now after this WC with his old €20m buyout clause...

I have a feeling that Valencia will keep him, he is to good to send him on loan but we'll see what happens, it's still too early

 

seriously, Valencia is an elegant team and would love to see him thrive there

 

Either the manager or LKI needs to go. No point of keeping him in the team when the manager doesnt even use any playmakers like him.

 

Yeah, I mean we all do, at the end he is a homegrown player, fortunately he seems quite fond to the city and the club, so as long the club shows belief in him, it doesn't seem like he will want to leave at the first "hard time" moment

 

And he's 2-3 years younger than them.

 

You know if he wins the golden ball he'll be the second youngest player to have ever won it after Messi?
You have to admit that's something...
I'm also counting the months and the years.

 

Yes but our Asian Games isn't a good indicator when we bring the very best + 3 best Overage players, while all the other countries bring their u21 sides and B sides. Essentially, we really bring old players on average in comparison to other teams (including HIB, LSW and especially HEJ). We really brought a gun in a knife game.
This is different because all teams are relatively even by age and quality, and Lee Kangin is playing against someone 2 years older than him.

 

Did you say Ryu Seung Woo?

 

I still think Ajax would be perfect place for him considering their history in developing young players.

I don't have any faith in Marcelino at all. He's under too much pressure to win at all cost, and I'm afraid Lee will never get the time he needs. Lee has to go to a team where he will get regular playing time.

I can't wait for him to start playing with SON. LEE to SON combo will be magical.

Bye-bye, I.B. Clueless....

 

If van de beek stays, Lee is going to be on the bench at Ajax. Also Dutch league kind of sucks outside of Ajax/PSV.

Would much rather him do a loan within La Liga.
