Kang In continues to gain plaudits and recognition for his talent on the pitch with Valencia CF, and was included in the Top 10 for the NxGn (Next Generation) awards chosen by publication Goal, ranking players born after 2001.
He placed seventh out of 50 players, voted by the editors of the 64 versions of Goal published around the world.
