Present in Didier Deschamps’ list for the 2026 World Cup, Lucas Digne (33 years old) was not supposed to be a starter. But the former LOSC player was able to seize his chance to beat Théo Hernandez, who did not really convince during the tournament. The Aston Villa left-back was able to bring his qualities and his high-level experience to the Blues. The only downside was his match against Spain and his duel against Lamine Yamal.
But overall, he knew how to find his place on the pitch and in the group. A group in which he was able to live with several Paris Saint-Germain players, including Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué, Bradley Barcola and Lucas Hernandez. Players that he will find in the club since Lucas Digne will join the capital club. Last week, we explained to you on our site that PSG wanted to recruit the Villans full-back in order to act as Nuno Mendes’s understudy.
Digne returns to PSG
His profile pleased Parisian leaders as well as Luis Enrique, who has already crossed paths with him in Barcelona. Paris was therefore ready to lift the release clause of the player who was waiting for the end of the World Cup to complete his transfer. Once back in France, things have accelerated in recent hours. According to our information, Paris Saint-Germain and Aston Villa have completely agreed on the transfer of Digne.
An operation worth around €10 million. The player is expected this Monday to undergo his medical examination and sign a three-year contract. He will therefore make his comeback in Paris, where he already played between 2013 and 2016 (he was loaned for a season to AS Roma, editor’s note). This to the great pleasure of one of his sons who is a big fan of Paris Saint-Germain.
