This is not the first time that the brother of the Milanese Théo has been announced in the sights of Paris Saint-Germain. When he was still wearing the Atlético Madrid tunic, he was asked about the subject during a press conference with the France team: “I live life in the present, I don’t look too much to the future, and for now I’m in Madrid, I’m fine. Personally, I am not looking to change clubs at the moment. I’m fine, I have everything there, my life, my friends, everything there. Afterwards, in the future, if the club was interested and there is an agreement, why not? Afterwards, I come from Marseille, I’m from Marseille, it’s going to be a bit complicated to go to Paris (laughs), but anything can happen in this life. Frankly, personally, I don’t think that would happen…today.” And tomorrow ?
