Real Madrid on alert as PSG monitors Arsenal €120m-rated ace

The transfer window has recently closed, but Paris Saint-Germain is still actively scouting for potential reinforcements to strengthen their squad.

Paris Saint-Germain has shifted its sporting strategy to focus on acquiring young talents who can contribute both immediately and in the future. This summer, the club signed promising players such as William Pacho (22), Joao Neves (19), and Desire Doue (19).

However, to address their defensive shortcomings and bolster their squad depth, Luis Campos is reportedly looking towards England, specifically at Arsenal’s William Saliba. The 24-year-old French international is also a target for top European clubs like Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.

According to the British media outlet Caught Offside, PSG is keen on signing Saliba as part of their ongoing quest to bring in the best French players. The article highlights that there is "little chance" that Arsenal would sell Saliba for less than €120 million, possibly even more.

Despite this substantial asking price, PSG, along with Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, remains interested in acquiring the defender, who is under contract with Arsenal until 2027. This could lead to fierce competition for Saliba, who is widely regarded as one of the best in his position.

PSG’s current squad includes six French internationals—Presnel Kimpembe, Lucas Hernandez, Warren Zaire-Emery, Bradley Barcola, Ousmane Dembele, and Randal Kolo Muani—as well as one young French prospect, Desire Doue.

With this strong French presence, Saliba could potentially fit in well at PSG, aligning with the club’s strategy to reinforce their team with top domestic talent. The ongoing interest in Saliba underscores PSG's commitment to enhancing their squad with high-caliber players.
