At a time when Christophe Galtier was turning the page at Paris Saint-Germain, the 2023 summer transfer window was getting underway. Several players have packed up, first and foremost Neymar and Lionel Messi. But also Marco Verratti, Julian Draxler, Leandro Paredes and other Georginio Wijnaldum. Then it was the turn of the arrivals. Bradley Barcola, Lucas Hernandez, Ousmane Dembélé and Randal Kolo Muani. A non-exhaustive list which also included Arnau Tenas. At the end of his contract with FC Barcelona, the young goalkeeper chose to sign in Paris, in particular because Luis Enrique was personally responsible for convincing him. But deprived of playing time, the player has already had enough.
According to Sport, the twenty-two-year-old goalkeeper is tired of having to chomp at the bit at Paris Saint-Germain. Not a single minute of play to get his teeth into since his arrival and he is starting to find the time long. Tenas knew the situation and knew well that he came in third position in the hierarchy of goalkeepers, behind the holder Gianluigi Donnarumma, and the number two, Keylor Navas. But he hoped to have a chance given the Italian’s performance and the Costa Rican’s physical form. From now on, he would not be against leaving.
A loan is taking shape
The Spanish media thus explained that Arnau Tenas could leave Paris this winter, in the form of a loan. A possibility a priori accepted by the main interested party. The Parisian club also seems happy with what it has seen from the Spaniard since he has been there and is still counting on him for the future. Under contract until June 2026, the former Barça player should quickly find some playing time elsewhere. Before coming back stronger and becoming Donnarumma’s number one competitor?
