Relegated to fourth place in the Paris Saint-Germain center-back hierarchy, Lucas Hernandez is having a frustrating season and is reportedly questioning his future at the club, despite a contract running until 2028, as revealed by L’Équipe. The world champion is reportedly waiting for the club’s directors to clarify their plans for him. A departure would not be out of the question.
“The world champion is not satisfied with his situation”.
“Now number four in the central midfield hierarchy, the world champion is not satisfied with his situation, nor with the 1,023 minutes he has played. Could this status prompt him to start thinking about his future at PSG, where he is tied until 2028?
“A joint decision could open the door to a departure this summer”.
Above all, it will be up to the directors to express their intentions to him and to specify the place they would like to offer him in the next phase of the project. A joint decision could open the door to a departure this summer. In that case, we’d need to find a club capable of paying him a substantial salary. As with Marquinhos, Saudi Arabia is a possibility, even if the local teams have not yet made as much progress as they have with the Brazilian.”
While PSG may be considering a major defensive overhaul for next season, Lucas Hernandez’s future looks more uncertain than ever. The world champion is struggling to get back to his best after a serious injury, complicating his quest for playing time and confidence.
In this context, a departure cannot be ruled out, especially as the club is looking to inject new blood at the back. For Hernandez, the increased competition and the challenge of returning to 100% fitness make the situation all the more delicate. We have also learned that PSG are looking to bring in 22-year-old Tomas Araujo, which would make the task even more complex for the French international.
