The 2025/2026 winter transfer window runs from Thursday, January 1st to Monday, February 2nd (8 PM CET) in France, and rumors surrounding Paris Saint-Germain are piling up. This time, it’s L’Equipe that mentions an interest in Albert Costa (the 22-year-old right-back from FC Porto, under contract until 2030) and Anisio Cabral (the 17-year-old striker from Benfica).
“PSG could be getting a head start on their summer recruitment in several positions. They are particularly interested in two young Portuguese players: right-back Albert Costa (22 years old, FC Porto) and the very young center-forward Anisio Cabral (17 years old, Benfica).”
Nothing is impossible; PSG always prepares for the transfer window with various options (like all clubs). In particular, they are looking at young talents. This fits into their project, and there seem to be openings in certain positions for the coming years. There’s also the idea of avoiding seeing new prodigies move to other clubs and become difficult to sign later.
However, nothing is certain here. It’s just a rumor, with nothing concrete. Paris may have many other options, just as Costa and Cabral may have other choices for the future. There might not even be an offer, let alone an agreement.
