Paris Saint-Germain could well suffer the consequences of its transfer window choices. This summer, the capital club opted for discretion, contenting themselves with recruiting Illya Zabarnyi in central defense, Lucas Chevalier in goal and a third goalkeeper, Renato Marin.
But the recent injury to Achraf Hakimi, contracted against Bayern Munich this Tuesday in the Champions League, risks upsetting the balance of the Parisian squad. Deprived of an understudy for his Moroccan right-back, who will be absent between six and eight weeks, Luis Enrique will have to show ingenuity to compensate for this unavailability.
“You will never have the equivalent of Hakimi”
Next January, the recruitment of a new right-back cannot be ruled out. However, finding the rare pearl does not look easy for Parisians. In any case, this is Samir Nasri’s opinion. “ The transfer window is coming quickly? You’re really making money there in the winter transfer window. They recruited Kvara? There, it’s not the same. Naples did this thing because Kvara wanted to leave, but the big clubs, the guys who are starters, you will never be able to poach them », explained the star consultant of Canal+ on the set of Channel Champions Club.
The journalist and editorialist of RMCDaniel Riolo, shared the same observation. “ You will never have the equivalent of Hakimi. So what kind of right back are you going to take? Tell me a top right back who will come and understudy Hakimi “, he said.
