PSG is preparing for the post-Mbappé era but the paths leading to top-tier offensive cracks are shrinking a little more every day. Even recruiting a Luis Diaz seems complicated…
A year after breaking the bank for Randal Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos, for respectively 95 and 80 million euros, PSG will have to strike a big blow on the transfer market next summer by offering the services of a new offensive crack. Luis Campos, the head of recruitment for the Rouge et Bleu, must absolutely make up for the departure at the end of the contract of Kylian Mbappé, the team's superstar and the team's top scorer over the last six seasons.
Despite its financial power and its competitiveness on the European scene, PSG is having difficulty moving forward with its recruitment ideas. The arrival of Victor Osimhen, hoped for last year, is no longer relevant, so as not to overshadow Ramos and “RKM”, and that of Lautaro Martinez, who would make an exceptional offensive leader , seems already abandoned, the 2022 world champion wishing to register for the long term at Inter.
Luis Diaz dreams of another club
Luis Campos would target more versatile attackers, or even wingers, like Luis Diaz. Here too, the Liverpool wisp would not be easy to recruit. The Reds are reportedly asking for no less than 120 million euros for the 27-year-old Colombian international. The price may perhaps fall below 100 million but, even at that price, PSG cannot afford to make such a splash for a player who is not one of the best players in Europe. Antoine Griezmann would cost a lot less…
Luis Diaz is also not super motivated to join the Ligue 1 team coached by Luis Enrique. As indicated by the Catalan media Sport, Barça is very interested in the former FC Porto crack and the latter would dream of joining the Blaugranas in the event of his departure from Liverpool. For the moment, the Catalan club absolutely does not have the means to recruit Diaz. He will need to sell several important players to unlock 100 million.
