The 23-year-old South Korean forward impressed this season, scoring six goals and assisting six more across all competitions for PSG.
His form helped PSG secure a domestic treble and reach the Champions League final, increasing his value and global recognition significantly.
Despite his success, contract talks have stalled, opening the door for rival clubs, including United, to make a serious approach.
United’s new management under Ruben Amorim and technical director Jason Wilcox are keen to boost the club’s attacking depth this summer.
Lee’s versatility and marketability, especially in Asia, make him a desirable target both on and off the pitch for global brands.
Other clubs reportedly interested include Arsenal, Newcastle United, Atletico Madrid, Napoli, and Aston Villa, increasing the pressure on United to act swiftly.
PSG values Lee at over €50 million and are reluctant to sell, though interest from multiple clubs could test their resolve, reports Team Talk.
The decision may come down to Lee’s career ambitions and whether he sees a long-term future in Paris or the Premier League.
Manchester United remain confident but understand the competition and negotiations will be complex in the coming transfer window.
