Paris Saint-Germain is looking for reinforcement for its midfielder during this winter transfer window. There are many avenues.
The delayed arrival of young Gabriel Moscardo has reinforced a clear observation in the ranks of Paris Saint-Germain: an additional midfielder is necessary for the rest of this season. While taking care to be formal, Luis Enrique repeatedly repeats that the club is on the lookout for the slightest opportunity. “What if I need an extra medium? I’m like all the other coaches. If I can have several players in all positions, I’m delighted. We will be attentive. If there are opportunities to strengthen the team, let’s go for it! ».
In this sensitive issue, the robot portrait of the suitable player has been drawn up: PSG would like a midfielder who is active in recovery, but also has above-average technical quality to get out of intense pressure when the altitude rises in the European Cup. One name would emerge to meet these criteria: Bruno Guimaraes.
Guimaraes ticks all the boxes
The former Olympique Lyonnais midfielder ticks all the boxes to bring immediate added value to the Parisian midfield. At 26 years old, the Brazilian is experienced at the high level thanks to his time at Newcastle. But his release clause would be valued at 115 million euros…
Fabinho, Brozovic, Casemiro… there is no shortage of opportunities
Other alternatives may emerge during this winter transfer window. While the name of the Englishman from Manchester City Kalvin Philipps has circulated, more experienced elements at the high level could bring their know-how to PSG. This is the case of the former Monegasque Fabinho, who passed through Liverpool and did not thrive in Saudi Arabia, at Al Ittihad. The Brazilian is 30 years old and still has services to provide.
This rings true for Marcelo Brozovic (31), Al-Nassr player since last summer and recent finalist in the Champions League with Inter Milan. Finally, the Brazilian Casemiro (also 31 years old), is in difficulty at Manchester United and could follow the route of Angel Di Maria to breathe new life into his career.
