Starting against Nantes Lee (rest) is in the starting XI to face Nantes on Saturday.

Impact Lee is finally returning to the team sheet after a five-match absence due to his service during the Asian Cup and rest following the competition. The attacker will now hope to maintain that role, as he started in the club's previous six contests before leaving with South Korea. However, with Bradley Barcola's rise in form while he was gone, Lee will have some competition to put up with before securing the starting spot on the left flank for good.

The club will be happy to gain back the attacker to the team sheet, as before he left for international duty, he had started in the club's previous six matches. It is still unsure where Lee will lineup Saturday, as there is a chance he could make the starting XI but will be more likely to reside on the bench, earning minutes later into the match as a substitute in place of Bradley Barcola or Ousmane Dembele on one of the wings.

Leaving for international duty Lee was called up by South Korea for the Asian Cup, the league announced Thursday.

Impact Lee has started six straight matches for PSG in which he garnered one assist, 35 crosses (nine accurate) and 22 corners. At a minimum, the midfielder should be expected to miss the next two contests but it could certainly be longer if South Korea makes it out of the group stage. Without Lee available, Ousmane Dembele figures to take a larger share of the corner-taking duties.

Lee attempted 20 crosses, 10 corners and six shots across the two appearances. Should the Korean play that position, fantasy managers can rely on him having a quantitative improvement in certain statistical categories.

DECEMBER 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nets second goal in three games Lee scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), 10 crosses (one accurate) and seven corners in Friday's 3-0 win versus Montpellier.
