On the 9th at Seoul World Cup Stadium, a 2026 Coupang Play Series preseason friendly between Manchester City and Atlético Madrid was held.

The two teams, which delivered a UEFA Champions League-level classic in 2023, meet again in Seoul after three years. Atlético Madrid made a surprise signing of Lee Kang-in on a five-year deal for a €40 million transfer fee (about 65 billion won), assigning him the No. 7 once worn by the "legend" Griezmann. This match is Lee Kang-in's debut wearing the "No. 7" jersey, drawing intense interest from domestic fans.
