PSG eye Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka as Kylian Mbappe replacement
March 7, 2024
Bukayo Saka, a 22-year-old star for Arsenal, is willing to cost Paris Saint-Germain a cool €140 million.
According to Fichajes, Saka is a target for Paris Saint-Germain as they prepare for a historic summer transfer window.
Due to Kylian Mbappe’s departure at the conclusion of the season, the French champions are looking for the greatest attacker to add to Luis Enrique’s roster.
The season’s end marks the expiration of Mbappe’s contract. Even if PSG would have preferred for him to stay longer, the player has already made up his mind about his future. He has made the decision to join Real Madrid and does not intend to remain at the French team, according to reports.
Now that Mbappe’s departure is guaranteed, PSG has started getting ready for life without the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner.
Saka of Arsenal is one of the attacking players they are keeping an eye on to fill his void.
The England international has enjoyed an incredible few seasons after coming up through the ranks at the North London club. The Gunners are still vying for the league championship, and Saka seems to have reached a new level of performance. This season, in 35 games across all competitions, he has 16 goals and 15 assists. The right-winger, who is among Arsenal’s best players, has been crucial to their recent winning run.
Although the Englishman has more than three years left on his contract, PSG is prepared to prise him away from Arsenal. To finalize the trade, Les Parisiens are prepared to give the English team a record sum of money. They are willing to pay over €140 million to bring him into the fold.
Saka is Arsenal’s most inventive attacking player and a vital member of the squad. The Gunners will surely think twice before turning down a deal worth more than €140 million, though.
