The 2024-2025 winter mercato has arrived (throughout the month of January), so the rumors surrounding Paris Saint-Germain are piling up. Today, Relevo reports that PSG are thinking of Alejandro Baldé, the 21-year-old Spanish left-back from Barcelona (contract until 2028), should they need to replace Nuno Mendes (22, contract until 2026 and rumours of his departure).
“If Nuno Mendes were to leave, PSG would consider Alejandro Balde!
For the moment, no contact has been established between PSG and the player!”
We can agree that Baldé is an interesting player and that he would be a sensible replacement for Nuno Mendes. However, we remain cautious in the face of a rumour that has nothing concrete to offer. Nuno Mendes hasn’t even left yet, and there’s no question of contact.
And let’s not forget that negotiations between Barça and PSG are always going to be very difficult. Above all, the Catalan club could be looking to keep their young full-back. There’s nothing to suggest a departure. We’ll have to wait and see if there’s any movement on this. For the time being, it looks like it will end in a contract extension.
