In Paris everything is fine! The infirmary is empty, confidence is its climax and the locker room has never been so united. For his part, the conductor Luis Enrique leads with a master's hand a Parisian group which can achieve a historic triple. Level Mercato, Luis Campos should have a little less work than usual but the strong man of the PSG transfer window will still bring a little new blood, especially in the defensive sector.

If PSG is the best defense in Ligue 1, it showed some signs of fatigue during this long and intense season. Lucas Hernandez is struggling to come back to his best level after his terrible injury, Captain Marquinhos no longer has his 20 -year -old legs, while Presnel Kimpembe, although indispensable outside the field, is no longer considered a viable and medium -term viable solution. As for Lucas Beraldo, if his profile is much appreciated by Luis Enrique, he still seems a little too tender to hope more than a lining status.

Joel Ordóñez and Cristhian Mosquera on the PSG short list

Enough to try PSG to go to the Willian Pacho again. Recruited last summer at Eintracht Frankfurt for € 40 million, the Ecuadorian defensive rock immediately won alongside Marquinhos in central defense. A pretty stamped blow Luis Campos who gives ideas to the Portuguese recruiter who checked the names of two promising defenders under the age of 21, namely Joel Ordóñez (Club Bruges) and Cristhian Mosquera (Valence).

The first is a compatriot of Pacho and impresses on the side of the Bruges club, especially in the Champions League where he notably pointed out by perfectly museing a certain Victor Gyokeres. But competition is already tough since a half-dozen clubs are interested in the one that has been trained in the best Academy in South America, the Independent Del Valle. Physically solid, Ordóñez has a good quality of recovery, is good in air duels, and knows how to break the ball lines on the foot.

Before taking action concretely, Luis Campos and his recruitment unit supervised the Ecuadorian international on several occasions (47 matches – 3 goals and 1 assist all competitions this season) in recent weeks according to our information. The Belgian club is waiting between 25 and 30 M € to release it. Another highly courted player (who pleases PSG a lot), Cristhian Mosquera. International 20 -year -old Spanish hope, this solid central defender is powerful, fast and strong in duels. Pillar of Valence (38 games – 1 goal), the native of Alicante could be sacrificed by the Club Che to bail out his boxes. To follow.
