This is PSG’s fourth signing for next season, after Spaniard Marco Asensio (Real Madrid), Slovakian defender Milan Skriniar (Inter Milan) and Uruguayan midfielder Manuel Ugarte (Sporting Portugal).
Last Wednesday, PSG introduced its new coach, former coach of the Spanish national team Luis Enrique, who is still awaiting the arrival of new signings and, above all, the resolution of the situation of his star Kylian Mbappé.
The Frenchman does not want to renew the contract that ends within a year, a decision that the club does not accept. PSG have announced that they will sell the striker this summer if his contract with the club is not renewed.
