The Stade de Reims is definitely popular in Paris at the moment.
After recruiting Reims striker Hugo Ekitike, whose loan with compulsory purchase option was formalized on Saturday, the Parisian club continues to prospect in Champagne.
But, this time, for women!
Indeed, according to our information, PSG is following the situation of the young Reims midfielder Melchie Dumornay, 18, very closely.
The Haitian international has made a strong impression since her arrival in France in the fall of 2021. Named the best young player in the world in March by the international site Goal, she was also among the three players named as D1's best hope. women on the occasion of the UNFP Trophies.
A prize won by the Parisian Laurina Fazer.
For her first season in France, the young star from Reims scored 9 goals in 18 appearances in all competitions (7 goals in the first division).
His good performances caught the eye of PSG.
But not only.
Also according to our sources, Manchester United and Chelsea are among the clubs courting the young attacking midfielder.
Reims would like to keep her for one more season, but could decide to sell her this summer, knowing that her contract ends next year.
An Australian goalkeeper has signed
PSG, under the leadership of its new sporting director Angelo Castellazzi, is seriously studying this option.
The idea of inserting it into the Hugo Ekitike deal was discussed internally for a time, but this did not materialize.
If Paris wants to move forward in the negotiations, it will have to pay a transfer fee, but Reims has not yet set its conditions and Paris has not yet made an offer.
While Gérard Prêcheur should be inducted as the new coach of the women's section soon, PSG, which has still not found an agreement to part with Didier Ollé-Nicolle, is scanning the market to strengthen its midfield.
This project is considered a priority, Paris having to compensate for the departures of Sara Däbritz in Lyon, Léa Khelifi in Montpellier and Luana back in Brazil.
Aminata Diallo has still not extended and Kheira Hamraoui, summoned for the resumption on Wednesday, is no longer in the odor of holiness in the capital.
In parallel with the track leading to Melchie Dumornay, others have been activated in more defensive registers.
The Parisian club should also look for one or two attackers with the injury for several months of its top scorer Marie-Antoinette Katoto, package for the rest of the Euro which is currently taking place in England, due to a serious injury to the right knee.
Finally, 34-year-old Australian goalkeeper Lydia Williams, out of contract at Arsenal, has signed up with PSG.
She is the second signing of the summer after ex-Barcelona striker Lieke Mertens.
