Hwang Seon-hong, coach of the men's national soccer team who will participate in the Hangzhou Asian Games, expressed his intention to not rush to insert 'ace' Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain, PSG), whose joining date has been decided.
Coach Hwang met with reporters before leaving for Hangzhou, China, the venue of the tournament, through Incheon International Airport on the 16th and said, "Lee Kang-in will arrive on site in the evening of the 21st," and added, "We will carefully review his condition and decide when to deploy him."
Lee Kang-in, who is expected to play a key role in the national team, has suffered a left quadriceps injury since late last month, making it unclear when he will join the Asian Games.
The national team naturally wanted Lee Kang-in to join and adapt as early as possible.
However, as the team continued to miss out, there was great uncertainty as PSG did not provide a clear position on when Lee Kang-in would be released.
After continuing discussions between the Korea Football Association and PSG, Lee Kang-in announced his participation in the Asian Games after his team's home match against Dortmund (Germany) in the UEFA Champions League (UCL) on the 19th local time (4 a.m. on the 20th, Korean time). The decision to join the national team was made on the night of the 14th.
Coach Hwang said, "Lee Kang-in is said to have recovered from his injury and is training normally.
There was a risk in the (league) game this morning, so after a meeting with coach Luis Enrique, he decided not to play. He will likely participate in the match against Dortmund."
Korea, which belongs to Group E of the group stage in this tournament, will play against Kuwait on the 19th, Thailand on the 21st, and Bahrain on the 24th at Jinhua Sports Center Stadium in Zhejiang, China.
Lee Kang-in cannot be used until the second game, but he can be used as early as the third game.
Coach Hwang emphasized, “I think we will have to watch the UCL game on the 20th and judge Lee Kang-in’s physical condition,” and added, “The timing of his introduction needs to be adjusted.”
He explained, “We need to calculate and invest at what point Lee Kang-in’s condition will be at its peak after joining.
Rather than using it quickly, we will decide based on that aspect.”
Regarding Lee Kang-in's position, he said, "Communication with him must come first," and "since he has not been able to participate in the game for a long time.
I think we should review various factors, including his stamina to play 90 minutes, and decide on his position."
