The 2026 summer transfer window is already underway at clubs, and rumors surrounding Paris Saint-Germain are piling up. This time, it’s L’Equipe reporting interest in Jaydee Canvot (19-year-old defender/midfielder) from Crystal Palace (contract until 2029) and the French U21 team. FC Barcelona is also said to be in the running.
“PSG were already monitoring him before he left Toulouse.”
In his reunion with Larnaca in the Europa League round of 16 (0-0, 2-1 after extra time), the midfielder, originally used as a defender, showed a much more solid performance, reflecting his recent form in the Premier League (85 duels won, 39 tackles, and only 12 fouls drawn in 20 matches). This has certainly caught the eye of Barça, among others.
According to our information, PSG were already monitoring him before his departure from Toulouse, as part of their project to attract the “best young French players.” According to several sources, both English and Parisian, Canvot’s impressive development (valued at €20 million by Transfermarkt and under contract until 2029) has reinforced this interest, which has resulted in “nothing concrete. For now.”
This is a credible report, as Canvot is a highly talented player with a very promising career. PSG, like all clubs, needs to be on the lookout for promising players. Having had a great season at Crystal Palace, the French defender, originally a midfielder, could be one of the targets. Other clubs, including Barcelona, might also be keeping an eye on him.
However, nothing is certain. It’s just a rumor at the moment, and this matter may not go any further. We can’t rule out the possibility of it materializing one day. Let’s wait and see.
