Rayan Cherki (attacking midfielder, 21, OL) is the talk of the summer mercato. According to Djamel, Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund have stepped up their efforts to attract the Lyon playmaker, who has enjoyed a remarkable season (12 goals, 19 assists). On the PSG side, despite calls from the player, the Parisian club remains silent and has not had any exchanges.
“Liverpool and Dortmund are very interested in Rayan Cherki. Initial contacts have already been made with his entourage.
On the PSG side, there have been no recent exchanges with the player or his clan.”
Rayan Cherki’s career is gathering pace as the summer approaches. Courted by Liverpool, who have reportedly already made an offer of €22.5 million to OL, the young playmaker is attracting attention for his creativity and attacking impact.
In France, the Cherki-PSG soap opera seems to have come to an end. Despite a wink from Lyon during the UNFP Trophies, the Parisian management have not re-launched the dossier, cooled by the player’s choice of Dortmund last summer and a current lack of sporting interest. Cherki, who is under contract with OL until 2027, will certainly have to look abroad to take his career to the next level.
The Premier League now seems the most likely destination for the U-21 international, whose technical profile and potential for progress have attracted a number of English clubs. PSG, for their part, are looking elsewhere.
