While the transfer window for the Paris Saint-Germain women’s team had been relatively quiet regarding major departures until now, Le Parisien reports that some very bad news is on the horizon. The newspaper announced on Tuesday that Elisa De Almeida is on the verge of signing with Arsenal. The 28-year-old defender is expected to leave following the Champions League qualifying return leg against Eintracht Frankfurt this Wednesday (the first leg ended 1-1).
A major departure for the PSG women’s team! French international Elisa De Almeida is set to join Arsenal. She will play her final match for the Parisian club tomorrow before heading to London.
Nothing is finalized yet—as there has been no official announcement—but there is genuine concern. Media outlets tend to be more cautious with rumors surrounding the women’s team. This would be a significant blow for PSG, as they would be losing a key player who has been a pillar of the squad in recent seasons. At the same time, the French international’s decision is understandable, given the opportunity to embark on an exciting new adventure. Perhaps PSG qualifying could change the situation, but it already seems too late. Above all, one hopes that Paris has prepared for this move by lining up a replacement signing.
