Cherki is only 19 years old and is considered the ideal name for the reserve of the Parisian team’s trio (Neymar, Messi and Mbappe). The striker is one of Lyon’s main players and talks with PSG have already started this past week.
Rayan Cherki’s contact with his team ends in 2024 and that could be big for his sale to Paris Saint-Germain. Lyon can sell the player now and try to make some money, or try to renew the player’s contract, which may not be easy due to interest from other clubs.
In addition to Luis Campos, manager of PSG, being interested in signing more French players to his team, the arrival of a young athlete of just 19 years old would also be essential for the reconstruction process that the squad of the Paris team will undergo in the coming seasons.
Cherki, despite his young age, played in 81 games for Lyon – the team where he was formed -, scoring 10 goals and distributing 13 assists.
