Willian Pacho, the 24-year-old Ecuadorian defender, quickly established himself at Paris Saint-Germain after signing from Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer of 2024. While his contract runs until 2029, the first rumors are emerging about the man who has established himself in the top flight in his position. This includes a possible extension to increase his salary. Le Parisien claims this should happen in the coming weeks. Further discussions are expected.
“The discussions led by Luis Campos are progressing in the right direction.”
“The Ecuadorian defender from PSG, who arrived in 2024, could extend his contract in the coming weeks. The discussions led by Luis Campos are progressing in the right direction.”
Paris has decided to take matters into its own hands, just as it did last year with Achraf Hakimi, Vitinha, Nuno Mendes, and coach Luis Enrique. The fall-winter period appears to be a good window of opportunity to renew the contracts of its top players.
Ousmane Dembélé, Bradley Barcola, Gonçalo Ramos, and Kang-in Lee are among those in this category and will be the subject of more in-depth discussions in the coming weeks. Things should also accelerate for Fabian Ruiz, Senny Mayulu, and Ibrahim Mbaye, whose contracts all expire on June 30, 2027.
Be careful, nothing is certain yet. It’s not signed, football can move quickly, and there are sometimes surprises. But several media outlets are claiming that Pacho is heading towards an extension at PSG, so we can be optimistic. This signing makes sense, with the club looking to protect itself for the future, as the defender is likely to attract offers quickly. As for the player, he seems happy in Paris, and there’s no sign of a departure.
Let’s hope the good news continues. Other extensions could be forthcoming, including some important issues to resolve as his contract expires. Now let’s wait and see what materializes or not; we know it will take time.
