With the season over and an evaluation conducted on PSG’s performance, the assessment shows a scenario where the priority in transfers should be to seek a central defender, as injuries have become a difficult issue for the Parisians to manage.

Journalist Santi Aouna has confirmed that PSG would be willing to listen to offers for Presnel Kimpembe, who, due to his Achilles tendon injury, has not had any playing time under Luis Enrique and seems to have ceased to be a priority for the club. Therefore, a possible exit might happen in this transfer window.

Presnel Kimpembe, 28 years old, has been a very important figure for PSG in recent years. His love and sense of belonging to the club have always been notable traits of the Frenchman, especially knowing that Kimpembe comes from PSG's youth academy.

The Story Between PSG and Kimpembe

Presnel Kimpembe has been with the club for over 10 years, having played 236 matches for the Parisian team. However, the 2023/2024 season was almost nonexistent for the 28-year-old footballer, with his return continually delayed until now. It seems that if he stays with PSG, he will be ready to return at the start of the next season.

PSG continues to seek necessary alternatives to secure a key player for the defensive line in this transfer window. The name that stands out and attracts PSG the most is Lille's jewel, Leny Yoro. However, his transfer seems to be a bit complicated, as he is also targeted by clubs like Real Madrid.

The Parisian club's priority should be centered on a central defender, but the media continues to affirm that their strong insistence on reinforcing the attack is the first step in this transfer period. Gradually, PSG’s strategy during this transfer window will become clear.
