The Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is stepping up its summer transfer activity, with a key focus on midfielder Maghnes Akliouche. The club is advancing negotiations with the 24-year-old French international, who is currently competing in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers. However, securing his services will require reaching a deal with AS Monaco, his current club, which has already set its asking price.
The Rouge-et-Bleu are keen to bolster their squad under Luis Enrique for the upcoming season, and Akliouche has emerged as a top target. According to insider reports, AS Monaco has valued the talented midfielder at approximately €70 million. PSG could fund this move by capitalizing on the departures of players like Gonçalo Ramos (heading to AC Milan) and Kang-In Lee (joining Atlético de Madrid).
PSG’s summer transfer plans extend beyond Akliouche
While Akliouche remains a priority, PSG is also exploring other avenues to strengthen its ranks. The club is reportedly in advanced talks for Yan Diomandé and Alessandro Longoni, while a defensive reinforcement is also on the agenda. Luis Campos, the club’s sporting director, faces the challenge of finalizing these deals to further reinforce the squad. With PSG fresh off a second consecutive Champions League triumph, the pressure is on to deliver a seamless transition in the transfer market.
