Maghnes Akliouche, the 24-year-old attacking midfielder/winger for AS Monaco (under contract until 2028) and the French national team, has been linked to Paris Saint-Germain during the 2026 summer transfer window. However, reaching an agreement with ASM has proven difficult. Journalist Romain Collet-Gaudin stated this Tuesday evening that the deal is finally close to completion.
Just a few minor details left to iron out for Maghnes Akliouche’s arrival at PSG—things are looking very promising!
He is generally a reliable journalist, so one can assume his confident assertion isn’t baseless. However, it isn’t enough to be certain. No specific timeline has been given, and we have seen negotiations stall before even when a deal seemed all but done. We won’t know for sure until there is something concrete—something currently lacking in PSG’s transfer activity. That will likely change eventually, as there is still time before September 1st. But we are hoping for good news well before then, and Akliouche’s arrival will likely be part of that.
