Paris Saint-Germain is moving forward slowly but surely. After a timid start to the transfer window, the Parisian club has been picking up pace more and more in recent days. While Gabriel Moscardo (Corinthians) and Matvey Safonov (FK Krasnodar) quickly joined the club from the French capital, it is now the Portuguese João Neves who has officially become a member of Paris Saint-Germain. Nice reinforcements for Luis Enrique’s team, who had also targeted a contribution on the defensive side.
While Marquinhos has found his best form and Milan Skriniar is his understudy, on the left side of the defense it is much less convincing. Main satisfaction, Lucas Hernandez is absent for a long time since he suffered a rupture of the cruciate ligaments. Another French international, Presnel Kimpembe is also on the flank. Only the Brazilian Lucas Beraldo is therefore fit for the moment.
It’s hot for Pacho
Given this situation, Paris Saint-Germain therefore pushed to find the ideal player to compete for a starting spot in the Parisian hinge. The Ecuadorian central defender of Eintracht Frankfurt, Willian Pacho (22 years old), quickly appeared in the plans of the team coached by Luis Enrique. While the agreement was close, it has just been found.
According to information from The Teaman agreement was reached in the last few hours between Paris Saint-Germain and Eintracht Frankfurt around a transfer of the player from the prestigious academy of Independiente del Valle. The compensation for this transfer should thus be around 45 million euros including bonuses. Willian Pacho’s medical is expected at the end of this week and the left-hander should thus initial a five-year contract.
