Paris continues its shopping. This summer, residents of the Parc des Princes have already welcomed several reinforcements such as Milan Skriniar, Marco Asensio, Manuel Ugarte, Lucas Hernandez, Kang-In Lee and Cher Ndour. Ousmane Dembélé should be the next to pack his bags in the French capital. On Friday, we announced to you exclusively that the Barça player would join the French champions until 2028.
This Wednesday, Xavi confirmed an imminent departure of the 2018 world champion. Only details remain to be settled before Dembouz can put on the PSG tunic. But he is not the only one who could still do it this summer 2023. The residents of the Parc des Princes are still looking for reinforcements, especially at the position of number 9. A file where the champions of France struggle, despite very many (Harry Kane, Gonçalo Ramos, Randal Kolo Muani or Dusan Vlahovic).
Flashback for Johan Bakayoko
But Paris does not prevent itself from looking at other positions. Indeed, Luis Campos and his teams are looking to the Netherlands, where the profile of Johan Bakayoko is very popular. The versatile winger has been followed for a very long time. This winter, we revealed to you exclusively that the Ile-de-France residents had fallen under its spell and that they had even made a proposal, the amount of which had not filtered through. This had been refused and Bakayoko had remained at PSV Eindhoven.
Six months later, PSG, which has nevertheless strengthened its position, is still there. This is announced by the Dutch media Ed, which ensures that the French team still flirts with the 20-year-old player and under contract until June 2025. But the competition is fierce since Naples is also on the spot. The Partenopei are even preparing a proposal. Some media estimate that PSV will ask €35m for their player. PSG has been warned!
