After Mitchel Bakker transferred definitively to Bayer Leverkusen on Monday evening, are PSG preparing to lose a second left side in the coming days?
It is difficult to say for sure, but the news from Turkey has been confirmed in recent hours.
The club of the capital discusses well with Galatasaray (Turkish D1) for an assignment of Layvin Kurzawa (28 years old).
To date no door has been closed, and if the discussions succeed, this operation could take the form of a loan or a transfer.
The player would for his part not be opposed to the principle of a new challenge, he who had almost left PSG, free, at the end of the 2019-2020 season before extending his contract until 2024 against all expectations.
Last season, the former Monegasque had taken advantage of the long unavailability of Juan Bernat, knee operated in September, to regain playing time. But he never really convinced neither Tuchel nor Pochettino, and even made himself overtake by Diallo during the big meetings at the end of the season.
His swan song was his first completely missed period in the second leg against Barça (1-1), in the knockout stages of the Champions League.

Victim of a sprained ankle against Rennes last May, Kurzawa is still in the recovery phase and did not participate in the first friendly meeting this Wednesday against Le Mans (4-0). If he were to leave PSG in the coming days, Abdou Diallo could replace him as left-back knowing that Juan Bernat has still not returned to competition. The young Teddy Alloh (19), professional since June 2020, is also an option even if he is sorely lacking in high-level experience. But as holder, he was not unworthy during the victory against Manceaux. For its part, the Italian press evoked this Wednesday an interest of PSG for Theo Hernandez, the left side of AC Milan.
