Any speculation that Paris Saint-Germain are not seriously interested in signing Renato Sanches may well have been put to bed as a couple of reports suggest otherwise.
According to reports from Le Parisien, the negotiations between PSG and Stade Reims for Hugo Ekitike will soon be closed and the striker will move to the Ligue 1 champions. Then, they will turn to finalising the deal to sign Renato Sanches from Lille, most likely next week, so the two players can join the rest of the team on the tour in Japan.
Meanwhile, Fabrizio Romano also confirms that Paris Saint-Germain are set to sign Ekitike having beaten the competition. A medical is already scheduled after they reached agreement in principle with Reims at around €30m plus add-ons.
He adds that their new sporting director Luís Campos wanted Ekitike as he considers him to be a ‘top talent’ while now he is ‘pushing to sign Renato Sanches’ and reunite with the Portugal international.
oh no
anyway……
Hope we can Now focus on CDK and other targets. Sanches was an unnecessary distraction. This mercato proves trickier than I imagined…we should just go back to our strategy we started at the beginning of the Elliott era. Go young, go promising, go affordable and groom them…
Pretty sure he’s signed for PSG now, makes sense he wants the higher wages on offer. Not critical signing for us, if we get CDK then Sanches would have been used in double pivot, which may not make the best use of his qualities.
Bennacer + Tonali are our starters, and Pobega + one rotation mf is good depth. Imho we don’t need Sanches, he was nice to have.
By the end of the day we’ll get news that Milan still in pole position to sign Sanches.
Tomorrow, Sanches is hours away from signing with PSG.
Next day PSG has never thought of signing Sanches , Milan favorites.
Back and forth, on and on and on.
Get Wjnadrum from PSG and let’s forget about this Sanches dude.
We can’t afford his salary
