A terrible blow for Leonardo

Long-time target of PSG, Franck Kessié, the Ivorian midfielder at the end of his contract with AC Milan, has already decided to join another major European club.

If a possible arrival of Zinedine Zidane to PSG, dreamed of by the staff in Doha, would cost him his place, Leonardo continues to work hard, behind the scenes, on the transfer window of his club. With Nasser al-Khelaïfi, the sporting director is still trying to extend Kylian Mbappé, offering him a short contract in order to recover compensation in the event of a transfer to Real Madrid.

The Parisian leaders are therefore unable to prepare the succession of the tricolor prodigy, even if they have clearly targeted Erling Haaland. Norwegian crack is represented by a well-known Mino Raiola in the capital. “Leo” also intends to hire seasoned players at the end of their contract next June, like Antonio Rüdiger, Paul Pogba, Franck Kessie or even Ousmane Dembélé.

Barca take advantage

Unfortunately, PSG will not get their hands on Kessié (25), in the sights for a few years. The middle relay Ivorian, author of 13 goals last season with theAC Milan (and 5 this season), would have already chosen to join FC Barcelona next summer. ” The agreement between the parties is total “, assures the media Sport Italia concerning the Elephants who challenge Egypt in the round of 16 of the African Cup of Nations on Wednesday.

As a reminder, Leonardo must again recruit “smart” in the coming months, since the club’s losses at the end of the season will soar (above 200 million euros). PSG expected to sell for 100 million during this winter transfer window. It’s a fail. If Rafinha was loaned to Real Sociedad, Thilo Kehrer, Abdou Diallo, Layvin Kurzawa and Julian Draxler are still there and the very dear Mauro Icardi will not be transferred to Juventus…
