Has the Parisian transfer window ended with the signing of Désiré Doué? Not necessarily. The expected, even hoped-for, departures between now and Friday evening could reshuffle the cards. We are not talking here about Carlos Soler or Manuel Ugarte, whose transfers to England (West Ham and Manchester United), are already compensated in Luis Enrique’s eyes. But rather the potential departures of Danilo and Milan Skriniar, even if optimism is not in order concerning the latter.
Indeed, despite the announcement yesterday evening of an agreement almost reached with Al Nassr, PSG has not confirmed the existence of a concrete offer from the Saudi club. However, it is necessary to remember that the transfer window only closed on September 13 in this championship, which leaves a few extra weeks. However, PSG will have to get moving before if it wants to recruit a new central defender, if possible right-handed.
A central defender and a left-back?
According to The TeamPSG has already started steps to find a new central defender, with for example the case of Tomas Araujo. This 22-year-old Portuguese would thus be in Luis Campos’ list, and has just started the first 3 league matches as a starter at Benfica. He is not the only avenue explored by the Parisian management, which will only be activated in the event of Skriniar’s departure.
On the other hand, another reinforcement could fill the Parisian ranks, and without waiting for a sale. As reported by Le Parisien, PSG wants to recruit a left-back, to be Nuno Mendes’ understudy. The young Zague has helped out well, Lucas Hernández and Lucas Beraldo can occupy the position (but the first is out for a few more months), however PSG is looking for a real expert in the position by August 30 at 11 p.m.
