PSG are actively looking to offload Lee and will look to recoup the £18.7million fee they spent on the Korean. The French champions will not listen to offers below £17m.

Eleven of Lee’s 29 appearances in Ligue 1 have come from the bench this term and the attacker has grown increasingly frustrate with his bit-part role under Enrique.
