PSG and Nasser Al-Khelaïfi are working for Houssem Aouar
PSG is active on many levels to try to strengthen after the departure of many players this summer (Thiago Silva, Choupo Moting, Cavani, Meunier, Kouassi, Aouchiche ...) but for the moment nothing is officially moving.
This has the gift of annoying Thomas Tuchel, who did not hesitate to say it Thursday in a press conference, on the eve of facing Angers in Ligue 1. In parallel,
L'Equipe
assures this Friday that Nasser Al -Khelaïfi has positioned himself with Jean-Michel Aulas and Houssem Aouar to find out more about this file.
The OL midfielder, 22 years old and called up by Didier Deschamps for the Blues matches in October, greatly pleases the Parisian president.
The only problem, Arsenal and Juventus are already placed on the player trained in Lyon and PSG does not have a substantial financial envelope this summer to recruit.
Lyon would like to recover 60 million euros for its young element.
Paris would consider a loan offer with an option to buy, a bit like with Kylian Mbappé in 2017 during his transfer from Monaco to Paris, in order to ensure Lyon of a substantial financial windfall next season.
Enough to tip the scales?
Answer by Saturday, because Jean-Michel Aulas assured that none of his elements would leave after this date ...
Ousmane Dembélé should stay at Barça
FC Barcelona sporting director Ramon Planes ruled out a departure from French winger Ousmane Dembélé on Friday, announced by some media at Manchester United three days before the transfer market closes on Monday.
“There are no negotiations with Manchester United.
He is a player we are counting on, ”Ramon Planes said when introducing Blaugrana's latest recruit, young right-back Sergiño Dest.
"We hope to be able to take advantage of his footballing talent and I am convinced that he will have a good year with us," added the sporting director, who on the contrary opened the door to a departure of two other Frenchmen, defenders Samuel Umtiti and Jean-Clair Todibo.
“For Umtiti, we wish him the best.
He is a great player, but at the moment he is going through a bad situation, it is characteristic of injuries in football, ”he explained.
“There are four days of transfer window, it's an atypical transfer window.
A lot can happen, he added.
“Jean-Clair has several offers.
He wants to have playing time and grow in another team, and we have to respect that, ”Ramon Planes finally indicated.
