PSG are already gearing up to fend off Real Madrid and other clubs with some crucial contract extensions, according to a recent report from RMC Sport.

The French champions are meticulously planning their project under Luis Enrique, who is expected to renew his contract shortly.

In anticipation of this, the club is preparing for other significant maneuvers that could further solidify their ambitions.

This week, we learned of two important developments in PSG's planning, which are likely to be made official soon.

Firstly, the renewal of Luis Campos, the architect of the current project, is on the horizon. More importantly, an agreement has been reached for Luis Enrique and his coaching staff to extend their contracts, presumably for an additional two seasons.

The Spanish manager is set to remain until 2027, barring any unforeseen circumstances, as the club aims to consolidate the project initiated last season.

With Kylian Mbappe no longer in the picture, the strength of the collective will undoubtedly guide the Asturian manager in the coming months. However, he is aware that several issues need to be addressed during this period to ensure a smooth transition and to maintain team morale.

In this context, RMC Sport (h/t Fichajes.com) recently revealed crucial news regarding PSG's ongoing negotiations. The club has already begun discussions to extend the contract of one of the current pillars of the team: Vitinha.

The midfielder, who has scored one goal in seven appearances this season, serves as the team's guiding force and could see his contract extended from 2027 to 2029. This shows that PSG are keen to lock down their top players, especially with growing interest from clubs like Real Madrid.

Moreover, the club is also focusing on securing the futures of two other vital players: Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes, both of whom are currently under contract until 2026.

With Real Madrid reportedly interested in both Hakimi and Vitinha, PSG aims to prevent any potential departures next summer. The discussions are already underway to fortify their contracts, ensuring that the talented full-backs remain integral parts of the team.

The potential loss of key players has been a worry for PSG, especially given their history of losing star talents to rival clubs. By taking the initiative to secure contract extensions, they aim to avoid any surprises that might pop up during the transfer window.
