PSG's transfer countdown, deals, departures, and deadline drama

With just nine days left until the transfer window closes, PSG still has several matters to resolve, both in terms of departures and arrivals.

PSG’s transfer activity is far from over. Following Kylian Mbappe's departure, the Rouge & Bleu sought to strengthen every line. With just days remaining before the transfer window shuts, the club has secured four new signings: Matvey Safonov, Willian Pacho, Joao Neves, and Desire Doue.

On the departure side, the Parisian board has officially sold Noha Lemina (to Annecy) and loaned out several players, including Lucas Lavallée (FC Aubagne), Renato Sanches (SL Benfica), Cher Ndour (Besiktas), and Gabriel Moscardo (Stade de Reims).

The Parisian management is determined to continue trimming the squad, as reported by RMC Sport. Danilo Pereira, whose contract ends in June 2025, will not be retained. Saudi Arabia is courting the Portuguese player and is also on the radar of his former club, FC Porto. As for Nordi Mukiele, he "will only accept a move that aligns with his ambitions and on his terms."

After an unsuccessful loan spell at SL Benfica last season, Juan Bernat is encouraged to leave the club before the transfer window closes. Among the players likely to depart is Carlos Soler, with advanced talks ongoing with West Ham.

For Manuel Ugarte, the Parisian club continues discussions with Manchester United to find the best deal. PSG has already lowered its initial demands for the Uruguayan’s departure but does not want to come out as the losing party. "However, the Red Devils are not willing to go to extremes for a player who spent much of last season on the bench. An agreement between the two sides is close but still needs to be finalized."

On the other hand, Milan Skriniar will not leave PSG this summer. The Slovakian has received few offers and has no intention of leaving the French capital. "The departure of other players, including Fabian Ruiz, had been considered by the management, but Luis Enrique has vetoed it," explains RMC.

Regarding arrivals, PSG might be looking for one final offensive reinforcement. The club has explored options like Jadon Sancho (Manchester United) and Ademola Lookman (Atalanta Bergamo), but these pursuits have not advanced, despite both players wanting to join Paris.

The Victor Osimhen situation remains equally complex. The 25-year-old Nigerian is interested in joining the French champions, but Napoli continues to demand a high fee. "If Napoli agrees to significantly lower its financial demands in the coming days, PSG may make a concrete move. However, at this point, the arrival of Osimhen is not expected," reports the sports media.
