After Rafinha, a big surprise at 15M € in Paris?
Eager to downsize, PSG loaned Rafinha to Real Sociedad this winter. But after the Brazilian, another medium could leave Paris.
Idrissa Gueye, the shock transfer of PSG?
After giving in Rafinha to Real Sociedad as part of a six-month loan without an option to buy, Paris Saint-Germain could also let Georginio Wijnaldum slip away during this winter transfer window. In full difficulty within Mauricio Pochettino’s squad, the former Liverpool midfielder could make his return to the Premier League since Arsenal, Tottenham and Newcastle should lend to repatriate him by January 31.
While waiting for the outcome of this case, Leonardo and the sports management of PSG could also have to make a totally surprising decision. Indeed, according to the British press, Everton would consider the idea of repatriating Idrissa Gana Gueye during this winter. Fifteenth in the standings, the Liverpool club would like to strengthen their midfielder for the second half of the season and the idea of recovering the former resident of the Toffees to help Rafael Benítez to go up the slope would be more and more discussed internally.
Ranked among the best recuperating midfielders in the Premier League for several seasons, the Senegalese international is sorely missed at Everton FC. After having sold it to PSG in July 2019 against an envelope of 30 million euros, the English club would like to try to recover it in this month of January. Especially since its value has fallen sharply in the French capital.
PSG Mercato: Return to sender for Idrissa Gueye?
According to media information HITC, Rafael Benitez would have clearly expressed to his management the need to bring back Idrissa Gueye. athleticism confirms the trend and clarifies that Newcastle’s nouveau riche will also be very interested in the profile of the former Lille OSC midfielder. Currently in a regroup with the selection of Senegal for the Africa Cup of Nations, the 32-year-old player is now worth only 15 million euros.
Still according to the same English source, PSG is not necessarily a seller and would rather be inclined to send an exit voucher to Danilo Pereira after Rafinha. But a big check might just change Leonardo’s mind. That the sports director of the capital club could attract in particular Franck Kessié, Paul Pogba or Marcelo Brozović next summer. Under contract until June 2023, Idrissa Gana Gueye could therefore be the big winter surprise on the side of Paris SG.
