Bilal Laurendon, a 20-year-old goalkeeper who came through the Paris Saint-Germain academy and is under contract until this summer, is expected to leave the club this summer while currently training with the U21 team. According to L’Equipe, he is close to signing with Sabah FC, the top team in the Azerbaijani league.
“The goalkeeper, under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until next June, is indeed very close to signing with Sabah Football Club, who are top of the league after 22 matchdays.”
We remain cautious; nothing is certain with a rumor. However, the specific nature of the report suggests that the deal is well underway. It’s rare for the media to jump into the stories of relatively unknown young players on a whim, especially with such a destination. This move would at least give Laurendon a professional opportunity with a club that is well-positioned to at least reach the Europa League preliminary round next season.
