Paris Saint-Germain could soon face a defensive reshuffle. Milan Škriniar’s potential departure and Presnel Kimpembe’s ongoing recovery leave the club considering fresh options. With Marquinhos now in his 30s, PSG may look to inject more youth into their backline.
In 2024, PSG bolstered their defense with the signings of Lucas Beraldo and Willian Pacho, two promising young center-backs. However, the club appears far from finished, with another defensive target reportedly on their radar.
Over the summer, PSG explored multiple options to strengthen their defense. They pursued Tomás Araújo late in the transfer window, but the deal fell through.
According to Foot Mercato, PSG’s sporting advisor Luis Campos recently met with representatives of RC Lens defender Abdukodir Khusanov, although no formal offer has been made.
What’s the latest on Abdukodir Khusanov?
L’Equipe reports that Lens has enlisted Jorge Mendes to handle Khusanov’s potential transfer. The report reveals that the arrangement kicks in for offers exceeding €25 to €30 million.
