What comes next?
The management of Kang In Lee's departure by Valencia was one of the most disastrous operations in Spanish football, as the club practically gave away a great Asian star to make room for a mediocre striker, paying more than 8 million euros. However, Valencia will receive 3.5% of the transfer amount through FIFA's solidarity mechanism. Mallorca, which signed him at 20 years old, will take the remaining 1.5% to complete the 5% total.
Atletico Madrid is ready to announce the signing of Kang In Lee this week, which is a great reinforcement for Diego Pablo Simeone's team.
