Oct 15 (Reuters) - South Korea coach Juergen Klinsmann has called on Lee Kang-in to keep his feet on the ground as the Paris Saint-Germain playmaker continues his emergence as the country's next great hope.
"It's just a joy to work with him because he's always in a good mood, he's always smiling, but he's also hungry," Klinsmann said.
It's not easy for Kang-in to stay hungry because here, he's getting treated like a pop star, which is not good because a pop star doesn't score goals.
"Every time he will come back to Korea, there will be I don't know how many people screaming for him," Klinsmann said.
"When a club like Paris Saint-Germain takes a player from Korea, it means that it's a very special player.
