With Kylian Mbappe on the verge of departing PSG, the club is actively scouting for a suitable replacement, considering various potential candidates.

Victor Osimhen and Rafael Leao emerge as frontrunners in the race to succeed Mbappe, with Osimhen being the favored choice due to his impressive track record, although Leao boasts a higher release clause.

Nasser Al-Khelaifi, PSG's president, expresses a keen interest in securing the services of Luis Diaz from Liverpool as Mbappe's successor, despite facing opposition from other PSG executives.

Disagreements among PSG's leadership intensified regarding Mbappe's replacement, particularly with Al-Khelaifi advocating for Diaz over other contenders.

Additionally, Le10Sport mentions the names of Marcus Rashford, Benjamin Sesko, and Viktor Gyokeres as potential targets in PSG's quest to find a suitable replacement for Mbappe.

Some of those names, especially those who are central forwards like Gyokeres or Sesko, are quite interesting because they are young players with a lot of potential. But, are they better than Goncalo Ramos? Are their profiles superior or do they bring something new to the team that Goncalo Ramos doesn't? That's a very interesting question.

Then we have the name of Marcus Rashford, who personally we think is a great player, but with many ups and downs. And if we only look at the profile, is he better than Randal Kolo Muani? Would he contribute more than the Frenchman, who is younger and has recently been posting good numbers in relation to the minutes he plays?

The PSG management needs to understand well what they need with Mbappe's departure in order to make a coherent move. The fans have high expectations, they want stars, and they want a football spectacle.

But it would be necessary to define how to provide that to the fan, and how to benefit the team in terms of marketing, in terms of media reach, without neglecting the sports aspect, and without spoiling the work that has been done wonderfully during this season. We'll see what happens.
