Not spared from injuries, Paris Saint-Germain seemed to anticipate a livelier winter transfer window than expected. In defense, a left back was announced. Nuno Mendes is still nursing his hamstring injury and his return is not scheduled until 2024. If all goes well. Faced with this uncertainty, it was not surprising to see Paris anticipate.
The injury to Warren Zaire-Emery, during his first appearance with the France team, also sowed doubt. And here again, the capital club seemed to have opted for the recruitment of a midfielder. As a reminder, WZE is supposed to return after the winter break. But for the moment, the only transfer window implemented was the exercise of Gonçalo Ramos’ purchase option.
No recruits in the end?
For the rest, if the Rouge et Bleu have planned two departures for this winter, they are busy behind the scenes in preparation for next season. Yesterday, we revealed to you exclusively that PSG is heading towards Lenny Yoro. This Tuesday, The Team assures, however, that winter plans would have changed somewhat. Clearly, apart from the departures aspect, not sure of seeing the reigning French champions recruiting.
Concerning the left-back position, the daily explains to us that PSG’s plan A would no longer be to recruit. The Ile-de-France residents are counting on the return to competition of Presnel Kimpembe to help out. Without forgetting Nordi Mukiele, a Swiss army knife whose performance would have given satisfaction internally. If the Rouge et Bleu qualify for the knockout stages of the Champions League, the idea would be to leave Lucas Hernandez on the first leg and have Mendes on the return leg. Finally, as for the midfield, the Parisian leaders would judge the midfield to be sufficiently provided, even if the absence of Zaire-Emery were to continue. To be continued.
