While Parisian attention is focused on Italy with the upcoming signing of Gianluigi Donnarumma and the race to snatch Hakimi from Inter, the PSG transfer window also takes on Spanish or English accents and the capital club is found attached to many names more or less announced. Overview of the sounds of the day.

We are starting on the side of Spain, and the first rumors are obviously running on the situation of Sergio Ramos. Long before his now official departure from Real, we already found PSG as one of the most likely candidates to welcome the central defender. According to the journalist of the Madrid media AS Andrés Onrubia Ramos, the player free of any contract would now have a real chance of playing in red and blue next season. In competition with the two Manchester clubs on this file, Paris would stand out by offering the Spanish a better offer on the financial side. Although the amount is not mentioned at all, we can understand that this economic argument is attractive for the last contract of a 35-year-old player who comes out of a mixed season, frequently injured. Par elsewhere, on a personal level, the player would prefer to live in Paris rather than in the industrious city of northern England.
Same championship, same club and same position as Ramos for the second name released in the press today, since it is that of Raphaël Varane. If the prospect of seeing the Madrid club separate from its two captains in the same transfer window seemed astonishing, it is clear that Ramos and Varane do seem to have had their day at Real. Under contract with the Madrilenians until 2022, that is to say barely a season remaining, the tricolor would still not have responded to extension offers and could be tempted by a new challenge.
Real, however, intends not to lose for free a defender of such standing and the idea of a sale of French is making its way in the Spanish press. According to Marca, the PSG would have thus come to the information near the leaders of the White House, just like Manchester United which definitely promises to be a formidable adversary on many files. The Merengues would however wait no less than 50 million euros to part with the 28-year-old French international, which is enough to come and fill their well-destabilized hinge.
We then go to England, and we start very classically in Liverpuldian lands with the file Moise kean. The 21-year-old Italian, author of an excellent season on loan at PSG is indeed linked with Everton until 2024. A long-term contract which therefore promises to be a certain obstacle for Paris, who would like to keep a player not necessarily against the idea of staying in an environment to which he has become acclimated. However, according to the omniscient transfer window specialist Fabrizio Romano, Leonardo however does not want to sign at all costs the Transalpine while every penny promises to count this summer, and would rather sign for a new loan. No offer of 40M € was made, contrary to certain echoes. However, in this case, it is the will of the new manager of the Toffees that will be paramount. If Carlo Ancelotti had opened the door to a departure, a successor who included Kean in his game plans for next season would make negotiations almost impossible, let alone for a loan.
The other English rumor of the day is much more unexpected, since it concerns Ben White. According to the Mirror, Pochettino would be particularly seduced by the young 23-year-old English center-back to come and strengthen his defense – which seems to be one of his fixed ideas. Freshly international with the Three Lions he accompanies to the Euro, White has experienced a meteoric rise, first on loan in 2019/2020 for a historic campaign at Leeds de Bielsa and then back at home in Brighton where he sparkled this season. With his contract which runs until 2024, the Seagulls are in a strong position and intend to monetize at a high price their jewel, estimated at 50 million at least, which slows down negotiations with the main contender, Arsenal rather bloodless. Paris, a completely new track in this case, could therefore well be tempted to come and blow the player in the nose and beard of the Gunners, by offering the young central to integrate his defensive sector under the leadership of an anglophile Pochettino and who has in the past has known how to make the most of its young talents.
Finally, a last little detour through Italy, but neither for Hakimi, nor for Donnarumma, with a rumor Robin Gosens released by CalcioMercato.com. The 26-year-old German left side, under contract with Atalanta Bergamo until 2022 would thus be on the shelves of PSG to strengthen the left lane – an area that therefore seems just as considered as the right lane, a few weeks after the noises around Théo Hernandez. Valued at 45 million euros, the indefatigable piston has been revealed for two years under the leadership of mage Gasperini and thus displays a spectacular level on the offensive level, with 12 goals and 8 assists under the colors of the Dea this season, enough to constitute a formidable pendant to the other target piston Hakimi. Nevertheless, appeared the day after a Germany-Portugal (4-2) where he literally burst the screen, tormenting Semedo and being all the good shots, at the origin of 2 goals and also scoring a superb headset; above all, this trail smacks of the inexorable opportunism of Italian journalists and must therefore be taken with the pinch of salt.
