Here is a soap opera which is starting to drag on, and above all which smells more and more of gunpowder. Without his foot injury at the beginning of January, which will immobilize him for around three months, Gabriel Moscardo would undoubtedly already be at PSG. The French club is always looking for a midfielder to strengthen itself and the arrival of the young Brazilian seemed ideal. It was probably just a setback at the start, except that the file was so advanced that the Corinthians spilled the beans.
The brand new president of the Paulista club, Augusto Melo, even revealed on the day of his induction that the transfer was completed, to the great surprise of PSG itself. He also indicated that if it had been up to him, he would not have sold Moscardo straight away… This announcement came as a surprise in Paris. Even Nasser Al-KhelaĂŻfi had calmed everyone down on January 9 in The Team. “It’s an uncomfortable situation. We cannot take the risk of recruiting an injured player. »
PSG denies the remarks of the president of Corinthians
The capital club wants to take all precautions in this matter and does not want to sign anything before the midfielder’s operation. But the Corinthians are in great need of new money and Augusto Melo, who we are starting to understand a little, gave a lot of it yesterday. ” Everything is in order. It belongs to PSG, we have given our agreement. » The transfer is estimated at €20 million, payable in three installments. A way of rushing things and presenting the buying club with a fait accompli.
Problem, according to L’Equipe, the Ile-de-France residents still do not confirm the little bombshell dropped by Melo. According to them, the file has not advanced a hair. Parisian management still wishes to wait for Moscardo’s operation before concluding the transaction. As long as the player’s physical condition is not corrected, nothing will be signed… The player’s entourage remains optimistic and hopes that a solution will be quickly found but it is not at all impossible that Moscardo returns to SĂŁo Paulo, where he is still under contract until 2026.
