Renato Sanches, the 28-year-old Paris Saint-Germain midfielder under contract until 2027, has just returned from a season on loan with an option to buy at Benfica Lisbon. It was another mixed season due to physical problems. We now await confirmation of his future, with Panathinaikos having been announced as the winner over Trabzonspor for a loan move. L’Equipe confirmed this Friday.
“In recent days, the Turks thought they had made the difference, with a loan with an option to buy. But it is ultimately in Greece that the PSG midfielder (28 years old, under contract until 2027) is due to land. The formula remains the same, with a temporary transfer. But, this time, without an option to buy.”
Following several Portuguese and Greek media reports, it’s now the French sports newspaper’s turn to confirm this upcoming transfer. Certainty can only be gained with concrete evidence, but it’s very encouraging. We’d be surprised if there were yet another twist in this case. Unless, for example, the medical examination reveals a problem.
