It seems like the bigwigs at PSG are ready to splash some serious cash this summer in the transfer market. The club’s sporting director, Luis Campos, is reportedly keen on bringing in Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong. According to various sources, the Parisian bosses are particularly interested in the player, who is also a top target for manager Luis Enrique to bolster the club’s midfield.
PSG’s summer transfer window aims to address the potential departure of Kylian Mbappé by strengthening the squad with a top-tier midfielder. Luis Campos is reportedly exploring various options, with Frenkie de Jong at the top of his list. The Dutch midfielder, despite his undeniable talent, is no longer considered a priority at FC Barcelona, and other clubs are also gradually losing interest.
Bayern Munich’s Withdrawal Opens Door for PSG
Bayern Munich, long interested in the player, now seem ready to withdraw their offer. This would leave PSG in a favorable position to negotiate with Barca for his potential transfer. According to Spanish newspaper SPORT, the Catalan club would be willing to open talks with Paris, as long as no other suitors re-enter the race. This could pave the way for a major transfer to the French capital.
It’s worth noting that there’s a strong advocate for this player’s transfer within PSG: Luis Enrique. The current Parisian coach had taken note of this player who was recruited two years after his departure from the Catalan bench. He has closely followed his progress over the years. Now that Frenkie de Jong has reached maturity, Luis Enrique believes he can fully utilize his playing style.
The potential arrival of Frenkie de Jong could add another dimension to the Parisian midfield. This transfer should provide valuable creativity and stability to complement the other talents already present at the club. The situation remains one to watch closely, as it could significantly influence PSG’s transfer market strategy this summer.
