Filipe Tancredi, who represents Lucas Beraldo, spoke to ESPN about the 22-year-old defender/midfielder’s standing at Paris Saint-Germain and within the Brazilian national team setup. He was very clear regarding the long-term vision for the player, who joined PSG in 2024 and recently extended his contract through 2031.
“He is a very important player for the best team in the world.”
“PSG has high hopes for him; he is part of a long-term project. Out of 18 matches played, he has featured in 15. He is a very important player for the best team in the world—that is undeniable. In our view, he has done an excellent job, and he will eventually be recognized by the Brazilian national team. While he currently plays as a defensive midfielder, he was trained as a center-back and can also play as a left-back—a versatility that is a real asset for the Seleção.”
“The chance of him leaving is—if not zero—extremely slim.”
“Having become the youngest Brazilian player to win two Champions League titles, he will always attract attention on the transfer market. It is only natural that many clubs would be interested and reach out. The probability of him leaving PSG is—if not zero—extremely slim. The club is heavily invested in him, and his contract runs until 2031.”
It is refreshing to hear such an enthusiastic and confident perspective. This sentiment has been consistent recently, and the message is crystal clear: while some may question Beraldo’s role at PSG or his future prospects, he and his camp are very pleased with his progress. They are looking toward the long term, fully aware that even serving as a squad player for a team of this caliber is a significant achievement. Especially at his age.
This is also one of the Parisian club’s strengths today: players know that spots in the side are hard to come by and that there is a genuine collective force driving them to win titles together. Beraldo was able to develop his game by playing in midfield, which proved very helpful in buying him time when his path in defense seemed blocked.
Now, one can only hope he maintains the same level of seriousness and determination to secure even more playing time. The goal is naturally to play more, even if the competition is fierce. He also has his sights set on a return to the national team, as Brazil continues to search for the right formula to regain its former glory and produce memorable performances once again.
