'Number 7' Lee Kang-in: "A Player Desperate to Improve"

Lee Kang-in, who has joined Spanish powerhouse club Atlético Madrid, displayed a strong competitive spirit at his official post-transfer press conference, previewing his performance for the new season.

After practicing with his new teammates for the first time yesterday (the 7th), Lee held a press conference alongside manager Simeone today.

Having been assigned the number 7 jersey, which typically symbolizes the team's ace, he expressed an extraordinary drive to win.

[Lee Kang-in / Atlético Madrid Forward: I think I am a player who is constantly dying to improve at every single moment. For me, the most important things are lifting more trophies, winning championships, and how much I can help the team.]

He revealed that his decision to transfer was driven by manager Simeone's strong call.

Manager Simeone shared an anecdote about Lee treating the entire squad to Korean food yesterday evening, praising his human qualities.

[Diego Simeone / Atlético Madrid Manager: Just from his very first action, I came to realize how humble Lee is and how much he cares about our team.]
