Luis Enrique wants to have his men in the PSG locker room, and he is therefore demanding the recruitment of the Spanish international Pau Torres. It will be complicated.
Despite the failures of last season, Luis Campos is still in charge of the transfer window at PSG. For the moment, it starts very slowly knowing that the change of trainer has still not taken place. This obviously does not prevent the Portuguese leader from working on certain tracks, and from completing certain files which will certainly be formalized in the days to come. Luis Enrique, expected to be appointed next week, also has a say in recruitment, which was not necessarily the case with Christophe Galtier. But the balance is between the sports adviser and the chief technician. To the point of going to the end of a file that Luis Enrique likes a lot, but on which PSG is clearly behind?

This is what El Nacional suggests, for whom Luis Enrique would very much like PSG to recruit Pau Torres this summer. The Villarreal defender is a Spanish international that “Lucho” has therefore already had under his orders. It will take at least 45 million euros to convince Villarreal to let go of their central defender, who has a sizeable courtier in Aston Villa. Unai Emery wants him at all costs, and considers him to be one of the best in the world in this position. In Paris to show that this motivation is similar, even if the Parisian project may still seem a little vague. With the departure of Sergio Ramos, a place has become available, but Milan Skriniar is also packing his bags, in a workforce where there are already Presnel Kimpembe and Marquinhos. Without counting the probable arrival of Lucas Hernandez, who is considered at least as much as a central, as a possible left side.
Ouch, Pau Torres leans for the Premier League

A hell of a stopper in sight even if these files are not yet settled, and leave room for possible surprises. The recruitment of Pau Torres would be one, even if it would give a Spanish touch to a locker room where Luis Enrique also wants to have his men. For his part, the central defender admits to being tempted by the discovery of the Premier League, especially with Unai Emery with whom he has already collaborated. And transfer window gentleman Fabrizio Romano recently confirmed that Aston Villa are moving quickly towards a deal with Villarreal. Quite the opposite of a PSG which may not please its future coach.
