PSG could be gearing up for a transfer battle with Arsenal, AC Milan, Juventus, and Real Madrid over a highly rated young Spanish defender. With Luis Enrique thriving in the French capital, especially when it comes to developing young talent, PSG may look to bring the standout prospect to Paris.
Despite having one of the strongest defensive units in Ligue 1,PSG’s backline is starting to show signs of fatigue after a demanding campaign. Lucas Hernandez is still on the comeback trail following amajor injury, and while Marquinhos remains a leader, he no longer has the explosiveness he once did.
Presnel Kimpembe continues to be animportant figure in the dressing room, but his availability on the pitch remains uncertain in the short- and mid-term. Meanwhile, Luis Enrique is a fan of LucasBeraldo’s upside, though the youngsteris still seen more as a depth option than a reliable starter at this stage.
