Club career

Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors

Lee joined Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors in 2014 and made his debut in the 2014 AFC Champions League match against Yokohama F. Marinos on 26 February.[5] Choi Kang-hee, the manager of Jeonbuk at the time, praised his ability which kept balance about attack and defense of team, and actively used him, the newcomer.[6]

In 2016, he spent his best season by providing 17 assists during a year and winning the 2016 AFC Champions League.[7]

In the 2017 K League 1, he won the Most Valuable Player award after having eight goals and ten assists during 28 appearances.[7][8]

Holstein Kiel

In July 2018, Lee joined 2. Bundesliga club Holstein Kiel on a three-year deal until 30 June 2021.[9] The transfer fee paid to Jeonbuk was reported as €1.5 million.[10] He played his first game against Hamburger SV on 4 August, and was named the player of the matchday by leaving a deep impression on kicker with two assists.[11]

After the end of the 2019–20 season, his goal against Karlsruher SC was selected as Kiel's Goal of the Season.[12]

On 13 January 2021, he played full time and scored the fourth penalty in a 2020–21 DFB-Pokal match, where Kiel won 6–5 on penalties after drawing 2–2 against Bayern Munich.[13] Afterwards, Kiel reached the semi-finals of DFB-Pokal for the first time in history, but they were eliminated by Borussia Dortmund.[14]

Kiel also finished third in the 2020–21 2. Bundesliga, qualifying for the promotion play-off. In the two-legged play-off, Lee scored a goal and provided an assist, contributing to all two of Kiel's goals, but they lost 5–2 on aggregate to Köln.[15][16]

After the first half of the 2021–22 season, Lee was ranked 10th in attacking midfielder rankings of kicker.[18]

Lee led Mainz to three Bundesliga victories by having three goals and two assists in February 2023, and was named the player of the 22nd matchweek by kicker.[19] He was nominated for the Bundesliga Team of the Season because of his steady performance during the 2022–23 season, but failed to win.[20]
