PSG is again requested on the market. This time, it is José Mourinho who is interested in one of his players, whom he dreams of attracting to Fenerbahçe. An experience profile, a possible recovery … and reunion in perspective.
The identity of the targeted player is not trivial. Marco Asensio, still under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until 2026, is in the viewfinder of the Portuguese coach. According to several media, Mourinho has already met the Spaniard, while the Stambouliote club would have made a verbal request to know the Parisian requirements. The discussions would also include the salary claimed by the player's entourage.

The “Special One” approach is not without logic. Loaned to Aston Villa in the second half of the 2024-2025 season, Asensio distinguished himself with eight goals and a decisive pass in 21 appearances. Despite a contractual situation still stable in Paris, the former Real Madrid seems to be looking for a new project where he would have more guarantees. Fenerbahçe could offer this springboard, in a club that targets the title against Galatasaray.

On the PSG side, a departure from Asensio could make it possible to release the payroll and refine a group that has become plethora.

What consider an unexpected bridge between the French capital and the Bosphorus.
