PSG already has Kylian Mbappe's successor
An unexpected turn in PSG's outlook emerges, as per a report from RMC Sport. According to this report, Paris will not prioritize signing a central striker during the upcoming summer transfer window.
Renowned sports journalist Fabrice Hawkins from RMC has indicated that securing a number 9 is not among the club's top priorities at the moment. PSG's decision stems from their trust in young talent Bradley Barcola, whom they deem capable of filling the role in the event of Kylian Mbappe's highly probable departure.
The profile of striker Rafael Leao has not garnered unanimous agreement within the coaching staff, as reported by RMC. Therefore, Paris Saint-Germain is investing in Barcola's development and aims to avoid benching him next season. The club's management seeks to maintain a competitive and balanced squad, where every player has the opportunity to contribute to the team's success.
Regarding next season's planning, PSG is beginning to outline the contours of its squad. The objective is to have a high-quality player for each position, prioritizing cohesion and collective play. In the attacking department, the priority remains the acquisition of a versatile player who can effectively operate on the left flank. However, Leao is not considered a top priority at present, indicating that the club will explore other options in the market.
With Bradley Barcola emerging as a promising option and the pursuit of a player who fits the team's collective playing style, Paris Saint-Germain is gearing up to face the challenges of the upcoming season with determination and ambition.
