The highly anticipated transfer of South Korean footballer Lee Kang-in to Atletico Madrid is currently on hold, not due to a lack of agreement, but because of delays in processing the necessary paperwork from his current club, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

According to F.J. Diaz, the journalist covering Atletico Madrid for the Spanish sports newspaper AS, the transfer deal has reached a verbal agreement and all negotiations have been concluded. However, the official announcement is being held back as PSG is reportedly experiencing delays in sending the required documents.

The report suggests that internal issues within PSG are causing the hold-up. The transfer is expected to be finalized without further complications once the documentation is dispatched from the French club to Atletico Madrid.

This situation has created a temporary pause in what has been a closely watched transfer saga for the talented young player, leaving fans and media awaiting the official confirmation.
