There will be no new frustration at Camp des Loges this summer. After the departures of Tanguy Kouassi (Bayern Munich) and Adil Aouchiche (Saint-Etienne), El Chadaille Bitshiabu - one of PSG's greatest hopes - has decided to continue his adventure with the capital club. Despite the forcing of the biggest European clubs (Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, Dortmund, Leipzig and AC Milan), the young 15-year-old central defender (since May 16), has signed an aspiring contract of 3 years until 2023.
In the calendar year of his 16 years (in 2021), he will sign a first professional contract of 3 years (the maximum duration provided for by the charter). "We are very happy because the priority was to stay at PSG," said Willy Bitshiabu, father of El Chadaille. We spoke with Leonardo (the sports director). The club is counting on my son. The coaches want to make him a great player. For them, he has all the talent and ability to become one of the best defenders. "

- Paris Saint-Germain (@PSG_inside) July 27, 2020It is therefore the end of a soap opera that started several months ago. After resuming on June 29 with the U19s led by Stéphane Roche, the colossus of 1.95 m for 96 kg had even had to stop training after two days because his amateur license ended on June 30.
"He can follow in Kimpembe's footsteps"
While the negotiations intensified between Leonardo and the entourage of El Chadaille Bitshiabu, the Parisian titi - then without a club - was finally back at the Camp des Loges on July 16 after signing a training agreement not accompanied by a contract with the capital club. This agreement binds all young people who are attached to a training center in France. This has insurance value and allows young people to benefit from accommodation, lessons at school, catering, the medical aspect and of course to be able to train.
Arrived at PSG in 2017 after stints at US Saint-Denis (2011 to 2016) and ACBB (2016-2017), the native of Villeneuve-Saint-Georges (Val-de-Marne) will therefore evolve in the jersey Parisian for the next four years. Many see him doing a course like Presnel Kimpembe. “His passing quality is exceptional. El Chadaille finds shifts and he is able to make passes that eliminate 5-6 players, praises Hervé Guégan, his coach in U16 during the last Al Kass Cup. He will be a top player! He can follow in Kimpembe's footsteps. A nice comparison.
