This summer, Paris Saint-Germain decided to get a makeover. New coach, new players, the club from the capital wants to start off on the right foot and above all not to repeat the same mistakes. The French team has decided to turn a sacred page by not renewing the contracts of Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos. She continued her momentum by separating from Neymar Jr. The Brazilian will join Al-Hilal.
Priority Bernardo Silva moves away
Marco Verratti could well imitate him since the Italian is already in agreement with the Saudi team. The two clubs have yet to agree but an offer of 45 million euros is expected in the Paris offices. The Little Owl has a good chance of leaving. Luis Enrique will thus count on one less midfielder, especially since he has also just lost Renato Sanches and Leandro Paredes, leaving for AS Roma.
The Iberian technician still hopes for reinforcements in this important game sector where Paris has often experienced difficulties. The Asturian also has an idea about the profile he is looking for, namely a creative midfielder. We could see it during the draw against Lorient last weekend (0-0), PSG lack madness and inspiration. For Luis Enrique, like Kylian Mbappé and Luis Campos, the ideal recruit would be Bernardo Silva. But the Portuguese seems to have a soft spot for Barca.
A plan B named…Kang-In Lee
In addition, Pep Guardiola is counting on him at Manchester City. The Times also speaks of a future extension. This does not suit PSG, which has been chasing after him for a year. Despite the good relationship between PSG and Jorge Mendes, the player’s agent, Paris cannot reach a conclusion. Other profiles are studied. But The Team explains this Tuesday that if no player completely pleases the club, PSG will not recruit an additional midfielder. A strong and daring choice at the same time since the club of the capital lost many creative players including Messi or Neymar.
But the residents of the Parc des Princes have a plan in mind. Indeed, they had anticipated a potential lack in the midfield by recruiting Kang-In Lee. Used on the wing since his arrival, the South Korean has already evolved as a midfielder in Mallorca. It would therefore be likely to help out in the midfield. Troubleshooting is good, but Paris remains understaffed in this game sector. A new puzzle in perspective…
