In search of an attacker, Paris Saint-Germain could find happiness in Portugal. The French champion is still interested in Gonçalo Ramos. This is good, Benfica Lisbon agrees to transfer its center forward represented by agent Jorge Mendes.
Among Paris Saint-Germain supporters and observers, the return of the rumored Sergio Conceição is going rather badly. Nothing to do with the skills or profile of the FC Porto coach. The problem comes rather from his agent Jorge Mendes, considered too influential in the recruitment of the capital club. It is true that the representative of Vitinha also manages the interests of Manuel Ugarte, future Parisian recruit, and Bernardo Silva, priority of adviser Luis Campos for the position of right winger. And here is another client of Jorge Mendes reappearing in the news of Paris Saint-Germain.
I really like Sergio Conceicao but PSG cannot become Mendes Saint Germain. It’s getting ridiculous. The players recruited, the coach… no!! Stop. A bit of dignity!

According to the sports daily O Jogo, Gonçalo Ramos is still one of the targets of the champion of France. A track that Luis Campos could well dig given the situation of the attacker. Indeed, Benfica Lisbon has already compensated for the possible departure of its striker with the arrival of the Argentinian Taty Castellanos. A transfer of the Portuguese international would therefore be considered this summer. The Parisian adviser will surely see an opportunity there, just like Manchester United who are also announced to be interested.
Tensions between Paris and Benfica
Note that Gonçalo Ramos, author of 27 goals in all competitions this season, has a release clause of 120 million euros. But its leaders would be ready to sell his last three years of contract for 80 million euros. Difficult to say if the amount would be accessible for Paris Saint-Germain. In any case, discussions with the Eagles will not be easy, their president Rui Costa not having appreciated that the Parisians steal his young midfielder Cher Ndour at the end of his contract.
