Paris Saint-Germain, the reigning European champions, is already looking ahead to the next transfer window. While the October international break will allow them to assess their summer signings, the club remains attentive to any opportunities that may arise. According to L’Équipe, Luis Enrique (55) still wants a left-footed right winger, but other positions – in midfield and defense – are also being discussed.
“Paris has never ruled out being active in January”
“Since the summer transfer window closed, Paris has never ruled out being active in January. Luis Enrique has often reiterated this: PSG must remain vigilant, ready to seize any opportunity for a target player.
The plan remains unchanged: if an opportunity arises for a desired player, the club will not hesitate to take it, but no signings will be made simply to increase the squad size. The profile of a left-footed right winger is still being sought. But in internal discussions, other positions have come back into consideration: a midfield reinforcement, perhaps an additional defender. Until then, the story unfolds in training. And perhaps, as early as Saturday, on the pitch at the Parc des Princes.”
The message within Paris Saint-Germain remains consistent: no signings will be made to simply fill a numerical gap, but only to strengthen the squad qualitatively. Luis Enrique, who has emphasized since his arrival the importance of anticipating and seizing good opportunities, has identified the left-footed right winger as the missing piece to broaden his attacking options.
This type of player, capable of cutting in on their strong foot and creating opportunities, is rare on the market and therefore highly sought after. However, internal discussions extend beyond the attacking sector: the midfield, already strong, could be further strengthened, and an additional defender remains a possibility, particularly to secure a season in which PSG aims to win all titles. The month of January, which is often eventful, could therefore hold some surprises if a promising lead emerges.
