Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are eager to make improvements to their squad ahead of the new season. The Ligue 1 champions recently appointed Luis Campos as their new sporting director to oversee a renaissance at the club.
Meanwhile, Slovakian football agent Branislav Jasurek has backed an Inter Milan defender to move to the Parc des Princes this summer. Elsewhere, the Parisians have received a boost in their pursuit of a Lille midfielder.
On that note, here's a look at the key PSG transfer stories as on June 29, 2022:
Branislav Jasurek backs Milan Skriniar to move to Paris
Branislav Jasurek has backed Milan Skriniar to join PSG this summer. Luis Campos has identified the Inter Milan defender as an option to shore up the defence. The Parisians are working to take the 27-year-old to Paris, although a deal is yet to materialise.
Speaking to Futbol Pravda, Jasurek said that Campos could move mountains to get his man.
“In my opinion, the transfer will go through. Luis Campos is a top director who always gets what he wants. He will do everything to bring him in. Milan is a humble boy; he’s always remained himself. I wish him well playing for one of the biggest clubs around, along with Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe,” said Jasurek.
He added that Skriniar has made history with the Nerazzurri, so the timing is right for him to leave.
“This (winning the Champions League) has been their only goal for several years; they’ve realized how difficult it is. This is great news for Skriniar and Slovak football. I don’t want to speculate, but Milan will move from an excellent club to a top one. He’s in excellent shape and is of the right age. At Inter, he won the Scudetto, the Coppa Italia, the Supercoppa Italiana; he left his mark there. It’s time to go.”
PSG receive boost in Renato Sanchez pursuit
PSG have received a boost in their pursuit of Renato Sanches. According to Gianluca Di Marzio via PSG Talk, the Portuguese is eager to move to the Parc des Princes.
The Ligue 1 champions are working to add more quality to their midfield this summer. The club are close to completing a deal for Vitinha but want another new face in the middle of the park.
Sanches is the preferred option, and his cordial relationship with Campos might help the French giants win the race for his signature. The 24-year-old is a target for AC Milan this summer. However, it has now been revealed that the Lille midfielder wants to move to Paris.
Iker Casillas heaps praise on Angel Di Maria
Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas has praised Angel Di Maria. The Argentinean is all set to leave PSG as a free agent at the end of the month. He looks likely to join Juventus on a Bosman move.
Speaking recently, Casillas said that Di Maria would be a superb fit in Turin.
“Adding Di Maria is a coup. Angel with Chiesa, Vlahovic and Pogba, what a team! And he will want to get ready for the World Cup. It is clear that he is looking for a team where he can play regularly and prepare himself as best as possible for Qatar,” said Casillas.
He added:
“He is very attentive and has always paid a lot of attention to his physique. He has never suffered serious injuries; he has always been healthy and seems to me to be in great shape. Here in Europe, he has always played at a high level and in big clubs. Di Maria will make Juve take a further leap quality-wise, both in Serie A and in Europe.”
