Abdukodir Khusanov, the 20-year-old central defender from Uzbekistan, was announced as one of Paris Saint-Germain’s leads for the mercato, while RC Lens had made it known that they were listening to offers for their player, under contract until 2027. He has finally joined Manchester City. This was made official on Monday.
The case has been heading in this direction for some time now, but it’s not clear how far PSG have really been in the race. Perhaps some things will become clearer now. In any case, it’s an interesting recruitment for Manchester City and a huge step for Khusanov.
We’ll now wait and see whether Paris will move forward with a defender this winter.
