With the winter mercato just around the corner, the rumours are flying thick and fast. This Friday, Lisandro Martínez, Manchester United’s 26-year-old Argentine defender, is said to be of interest to Paris Saint-Germain. According to CaughtOffside, the Parisian club are keen to launch an approach, even though the English club are counting on him and could offer a new contract.
“According to Caughtoffside, PSG are interested in Lisandro Martinez and are preparing an approach in the near future
“Lisandro is a very valuable player,” an inside source. United to offer player a new contract
No indication that the player is interested in a transfer.”
Nicknamed “El Hacha” or “The Butcher” for his aggressive style of play, he is renowned for his defensive skills, his ability to get the game moving again and his fighting spirit. It was these characteristics that caught the eye of PSG.
Indeed, the Parisian club generally lacks character. Everyone says that the players are too “nice” and sometimes lack energy and vice. Martinez could provide that. That said, Manchester United certainly won’t want to part with him, and the player has never said he wants to leave. We’ll see how this rumour develops, but it looks very complicated to put into practice.
