Transfers: PSG, Pogba, Barça… The 15 mercato info that you missed on Monday

New PSG offer for Skriniar

According to information from Corriere della Sera, PSG have increased their offer for Milan Skriniar. After an initial proposal of 50 million euros, the Parisian club would now offer 60 million to Inter Milan. As a reminder, the Slovak defender is under contract until 2023 with the Nerazzurri.

• Our opinion : 60 million is exactly the sum Inter needs to bail out its coffers. But Skriniar is the last player the Milan club wants to see leave.

Pogba, imminent return to Juve

• Our opinion : Nothing seems to be able to prevent the reunion between Pogba and the Old Lady.

De Jong at Manchester United, it gets stuck

Erik ten Hag’s desire to recruit Frenkie de Jong to Manchester United comes up against the high demands of FC Barcelona. The Blaugrana club would demand a sum of around 100 million euros for its Dutch midfielder, who had shone with the new Mancunian coach at Ajax. An amount that the Red Devils would not be willing to pay according to The Manchester Evening News. The leaders of MU would thus already be looking for a plan B…

• Our opinion : A way to force Barcelona to lower its requirements. It’s part of the negotiations.

Bayern formalizes Gravenberch…

All that was missing was the formalization, it ended up falling. Bayern Munich announces the signing of Ryan Gravenberch, a Dutch international midfielder who previously played for Ajax Amsterdam. The Bavarian club would have paid 25 million euros, including bonuses, for the 20-year-old player who has signed up until 2027.

• Our opinion : Great move. Such a promising player at this price is great art.

… and advance on Mané

While the first two offers from Bayern have been rejected by Liverpool, the Munich leaders intend to sign Sadio Mané in their ranks as soon as possible. According to several European sources, a meeting will take place in England in the middle of the week to define the contours of the last offer, which should be around 40 million euros for the Senegalese international. A transfer which should therefore be able to be completed quickly!

Di Maria leaves Juventus

The arrival of Angel Di Maria at Juve has lead in the wing. According to Italian journalist Matteo Moretto, the Argentinian winger will not join the Old Lady, who nevertheless seemed to hold the rope in this file. At the end of his contract with PSG, the 34-year-old remains targeted by Barça but also Benfica, the club where he was revealed before joining Real Madrid.

• Our opinion : The door is open for Barça… but the hardest part remains to be done, namely finding a contractual agreement with ADM.

Pique unwanted at Barça, Koundé to succeed him?

Barca’s very delicate financial situation is no secret to anyone. And it considerably weighs down the projects of the Catalan club on the transfer window. According to As, Barcelona would thus consider parting with Gerard Pique, who would not enter Xavi’s plans. A possible departure of the 35-year-old player would reduce the wage bill, an essential condition to allow Barça to embark on its priority tracks, Robert Lewandowski and Bernardo Silva, if Frenkie de Jong were to leave the club. Besides, Sport indicate that Jules Koundé would be a priority for Barcelona if Pique were to leave. The Frenchman, also tracked by Chelsea, is estimated at 65 million euros.

• Our opinion : Pique still has two years of contract, and probably few suitors. It won’t be easy to part with it.

Sound on the go?

Author of a brilliant season at Tottenham, where he finished co-top scorer in the Premier League with 23 goals, Heung-Min Son is not necessarily recognized at his fair value. According to the father of the Korean striker, a move to a bigger place could be the solution to give him the exposure he deserves. “He must be able to play an important role in one of the best clubs in the worldhe said in remarks reported by the Daily Mail. It was then that he would become a world-class player.Son, 29, is under contract until 2025 with Spurs.

• Our opinion : Tottenham have no intention of selling Son, the strongman of their qualification for the Champions League.

City launches on the Gavi track

This is one of the hot issues in Barcelona. The Catalan club have still not reached an agreement with Ivan de la Peña, the agent of Gavi, to extend the contract of the young 17-year-old midfielder which expires in 2023. Liverpool were already in the ranks, but the Liverpool Echo indicates that Manchester City have also targeted the Barcelonan, brilliant with his selection during the Nations League. His release clause, estimated at 50 million euros, should increase to 100 million euros during the month of June according to information from Marca.

• Our opinion : Gavi are attached to Barça and the increase in the clause should deter suitors. Even if the kid is stuffed with talent.

Sarabia vs l’Atlético ?

Author of a remarkable season on loan at Sporting, Pablo Sarabia wants playing time and an important role next season. Two things that PSG will not necessarily be able to offer him. A departure is all the more possible as the champion of France intends to slim down his workforce. According to Le Parisien, which takes up information from the Madrid press, Atlético de Madrid would be interested in the Spanish international, estimated at 25 million euros.

• Our opinion : Despite the departure of Di Maria, it is still too clogged in attack for Sarabia at PSG.

Cho would have chosen Spain

While several French clubs were interested in his profile, Mohamed-Ali Cho will finally opt for Spain and Real Sociedad. The Basque club has managed to convince the international Espoirs tricolor to sign for the next five seasons according to L’Equipe. At 18, and after a promising but lackluster season in Ligue 1, Cho would have notably said no to Salzburg, Sevilla, Manchester City and OM before signing with Real. Angers should collect between 12 and 15 million euros in the transaction.

• Our opinion : Cho still had a lot to prove in L1. Too bad to see him go so soon.

L’OM sur la piste Joaquin Correa?

According to Italian journalist Rudy Galletti, Inter would like to part ways with Joaquin Correa. The 27-year-old Argentine striker, on loan from Lazio, would be coveted by OM. He has scored 6 goals in 26 Serie A appearances this season.

• Our opinion : Marseille’s interest remains to be confirmed, but Correa has an interesting profile for OM.

Strasbourg is not alone on Dagba

Strasbourg tracks Colin Dagba well. According to Foot Mercato, there would have been a first contact for the transfer of the Parisian side to the Alsatian club. But this one would not be alone in the ranks. Villarreal, Eintracht Frankfurt, Mainz and Leeds are also tracking the PSG defender. L’Equipe indicated on Sunday that his transfer could bring in 3 million euros for the capital club.

• Our opinion : There is strong competition, but Strasbourg has arguments to seduce Dagba.

Nordin signs in Montpellier

Arnaud Nordin leaves Saint-Etienne for Montpellier. The Hérault club has formalized the arrival of the 23-year-old winger, who was out of contract with the Greens. Nordin had played 147 matches under the colors of ASSE, for 18 goals and 10 assists. He will wear number 7 in Montpellier.

• Our opinion : A good starting point for Nordin, a good profile for the Montpellier attack.

Mangani rejoint l’AC Ajaccio

Thomas Mangani returns to AC Ajaccio. Back in Ligue 1, the Corsican club formalized the signing of the 35-year-old midfielder. Mangani, who was out of contract with Angers after seven seasons at SCO, signed up for two years.

• Our opinion : A sacred left paw and a reinforcement of experience. Everything you need for Ajaccio.
