PSG is determined to strengthen its personnel to maintain its position in Europe. |
The 0-3 loss to Chelsea in the FIFA Club World Cup 2025™ final on July 14 woke PSG up from their sweet days. Despite having just touched the first Champions League trophy in history, the stumble against Chelsea showed that Luis Enrique's squad still has many holes.
According to L'Equipe , PSG plan to sign at least seven new players this summer. The goalkeeper position is not a priority, unless Gianluigi Donnarumma leaves. In defense, PSG wants to strengthen the center-back position as Milan Skriniar could leave, and Marquinhos is 31 years old.
Bournemouth's Illya Zabarnyi is a prominent target, with a transfer fee expected to be around €60m. If Lucas Beraldo leaves Paris for a fee in excess of €30m, PSG will immediately look for a left-footed centre-back to replace him.
The wing position is also a sore point as Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes have almost no stable backup options. Therefore, the French capital team plans to bring in two new full-backs, divided equally between the right and left wings.

PSG's midfield is stable thanks to Joao Neves, Vitinha and Fabian Ruiz. However, the 2024/25 Champions League winners are still keen to add an experienced sweeper, a player like Joshua Kimmich.
However, this hope was extinguished when Kimmich just renewed his contract with Bayern Munich. Sports Director Luis Campos had to race to find a quality replacement.
Up front, the two names that Enrique is keeping an eye on are Victor Osimhen and Rafael Leao. Although Galatasaray has the advantage in welcoming Osimhen, PSG has not completely withdrawn. With Leao, the Parc des Princes team is ready to hold on until the last minute, because they believe the AC Milan striker can increase the destructive power of the attack.
The transfer window has more than six weeks to go before it closes, and President Al-Khelaifi is expected to continue opening the coffers for coach Enrique to upgrade the squad.
