Real Mallorca have confirmed the departure of Kang-in Lee, who joins Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen after a standout season in La Liga. The South Korean midfielder was instrumental in Mallorca’s midfield and a fan favorite.

Lee contributed 7 goals and 4 assists last season, dazzling crowds with his dribbling, vision, and set-piece delivery. His transfer reportedly cost around €25 million, making it one of the biggest sales in Mallorca's history.

The club thanked Kang-in for his commitment and professionalism, and the player left on good terms. He’s now set to play Champions League football under Xabi Alonso at Leverkusen.

Mallorca will need to fill the creative gap left behind, and are reportedly looking at loan options from La Liga rivals and South American markets. Replacing Kang-in won’t be easy, but the club has a track record of smart scouting.

While fans are sad to see him go, they’re proud of how far he’s come and hopeful Mallorca can reinvest the money wisely to stay competitive next season.
