Abdukodir Khusanov, the 20-year-old center-back for RC Lens (under contract until 2027) and Uzbekistan, has been announced as one of Paris Saint-Germain’s leads for the mercato, and the Lens club has made it known that it is listening to offers. Journalist Fabrizio Romano claims that Manchester City have made a move.
This journalist is generally reliable, and coach Pep Guardiola has repeatedly stressed the need to strengthen his squad. It’s therefore a totally credible interest that could annoy PSG, who are certainly also looking for a player in this position this winter.
However, there is no certainty whatsoever. Except that Khusanov is on his way out of Lens. Are Paris and the English club ready to fight? Do they have other priorities? What would be the defender’s preference? We’ll have to wait and see.
