As the 2024-2025 winter mercato draws ever closer (January), the rumors surrounding Paris Saint-Germain are piling up. Today, Foot Mercato has confirmed that Abdukodir Khusanov, a 20-year-old central defender from RC Lens (under contract until 2027) and Uzbekistan, is a PSG target.
“Luis Campos has already met the player’s entourage.
“According to our information, Luis Campos has already met with the 20-year-old’s entourage, but has yet to make an offer. PSG, who are looking for a central defender this winter, could jump at the chance.
The Artesian club, which needs to recover some forty million euros this winter to replenish its coffers and compensate for the non-transfers of Neil El Aynaoui to Monaco and Kevin Danso to AS Roma, has deemed its promising defender untransferable in January.
But Khusanov, whose value hovers around €20m, is a player coveted not only by Paris. This could raise the stakes.”
Nothing impossible, as Khusanov is a player on the rise who seems to have great potential. While PSG may be looking to replace Milan Skriniar (29), the Slovakian has been a little better of late. However, his profile is far from being a given for the Parisian project, all the more so with coach Luis Enrique.
Nevertheless, we remain cautious, as there is nothing concrete at the moment. Above all, many players have been talked about at PSG, without the slightest confirmation. There won’t be offers for all of them, let alone an agreement.
Let’s wait and see the start of a confirmation somewhere, especially as Lens doesn’t really seem to be selling this winter.
