JJ Gabriel, a 15-year-old English forward from Manchester United, has asked to leave his club, and Paris Saint-Germain is reportedly among the teams interested in signing the player nicknamed “Kid Messi.” According to Sport, the player and his camp have a clear preference, even as PSG keeps a close watch on the situation.
JJ Gabriel leaning towards La Liga.
The player’s family and his advisor, Ali Barat, soon confirmed that they had numerous proposals on the table, though four stood out above the rest: Bayern Munich, PSG, Real Madrid, and Barça.
Until just a few days ago, all signs pointed to a two-horse race between Real Madrid and Barça. It was the footballer’s own agent who informed Bayern and PSG that the initial plan for JJ Gabriel and his family was to move to Spain.
At PSG, no one is making a public statement. The only certainty is that they are aware of JJ Gabriel’s potential and have met with Ali Barat to convey that the Parisian club is ready to formalize an offer, provided the door remains open.
It is a fairly credible report, given that he is a talented player capable of attracting major clubs, including PSG. JJ Gabriel might also prefer La Liga. However, these are merely rumors; nothing is certain at this stage.
This is particularly true regarding PSG’s interest in signing the forward. Every year, we see numerous rumors that never materialize into anything concrete. There is a whole game played by the media and agents, so we remain cautious. In any case, there is no evidence to suggest that this young talent is actually likely to join Paris. A surprise is always possible, and we will keep an eye on how the situation unfolds—though without any real expectation of it happening.
