If there is one position where France is releasing players who have been successful across Europe in recent years, it is the central defender position. From Ibrahima Konaté to William Saliba via Dayot Upamecano and the young Leny Yoro or Jérémy Jacquet, the French clubs are releasing some great players in this position, and there is no doubt that in the years to come, others will explode. There is also one who is starting to make a name for himself on the Loire-Atlantique side… It's Tylel Tati, 17-year-old central defender for FC Nantes.
The native of Champigny-sur-Marne has already made an impression during the seven Ligue 1 matches played so far, and has even caught the eye of FC Barcelona according to information from the Catalan press. A very strong player and therefore good in duels, physically gifted, endowed with astonishing composure for his age and more than adequate recovery skills, he has not only won over the leaders of the reigning Spanish champion…

Indeed, as indicated SportParis Saint-Germain is also very interested in Tati. The capital club is closely following the progress of the young French U18 international (3 caps). He considers him a luxury understudy for Willian Pacho, who would give the Ecuadorian a little more rest. His contract expires in 2028 and, even if the Spanish media does not reveal the amounts, it indicates that the price of the operation should not be particularly high. Other clubs, in addition to the Parisians and the Catalans, are also on board.
The Catalan publication adds that if PSG is seriously considering launching an attack for Tati, it is also because Lucas Beraldo's profile does not convince internally. The club's objective, in the short term, is to have two quality replacements for the two starters, and Tati would therefore take the place of the Brazilian and complete this hinge with Pacho, Marquinhos and Zabarnyi.
