before Fabian Ruiz, Campos tried a former Toulouse midfielder

Zapping But! Football Club PSG: Pogba, a good idea for PSG?

If PSG is today seeking to finalize the arrival of the Spaniard Fabian Ruiz (26), one year from the end of his contract in Naples, the Ile-de-France club initially had other projects for the midfielder desired by Christophe Galtier.

Paris wanted Ibrahim Sangare

Indeed, as L’Equipe reports, PSG wanted a more muscular profile to bring weight to their midfield. While the rumor Seko Fofana (RC Lens) has long circulated, the first choice was actually … the former Toulouse Ibrahim Sangaré (PSV Eindhoven, 24). A file worked on in the body by Luis Campos but which could not be done for an unknown reason when Sangaré finally extended his lease in the Netherlands.

For his part, Fabian Ruiz – who can be transferred for less than €30m – mainly serves as a market opportunity. An opportunity that PSG is trying to steal from Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid and Xavi’s FC Barcelona (where Ruiz is a plan B from Bernardo Silva).

PSG will have Ruiz but aimed for Sangaré

If PSG is now very close to finalizing the arrival of Fabian Ruiz (Naples), it is also because he missed the boat for a more athletic player: Ibrahim Sangaré (PSV Eindhoven). The former Toulouse player preferred to stay in the Netherlands.
