To compensate for the expected departure of Randal Kolo Muani, whose performances did not meet expectations, PSG is increasing its searches. Among the avenues considered, a French international, former player of the club, could make a surprise return. Trained within the Parisian academy, he represents an interesting opportunity to strengthen the offensive sector this winter.
PSG wants to bring back its former protégé
This player is none other than Christopher Nkunku, today in difficulty at Chelsea. Recruited by the Blues after shining at RB Leipzig, the latter is struggling to regain his best level in England. Aware of his talent and his potential, PSG would like to repatriate their former player to help him relaunch his career while providing a credible alternative in attack. The club is banking on its versatility and its experience in Ligue 1 to compensate for its current shortcomings. This is what the British media Caught Offside reports.
However, Paris is not alone on this issue. FC Barcelona, faced with budgetary constraints, is also considering recruiting Nkunku in the form of a loan with an option to buy. Catalan interest complicates the situation for PSG, even if the Parisian leaders seem ready to put in the necessary means to convince Chelsea. In addition, the idea of finding his training club could weigh in the balance for Nkunku.
A potential high-impact reinforcement
In the event of a return to Paris, Christopher Nkunku would be a valuable asset for PSG, which is seeking to regain positive momentum. With his technical qualities, his vision of the game and his experience in the Champions League, he could fit perfectly into the Parisian project. This operation, if successful, would mark a strategic turning point in the club’s winter transfer window. Nkunku, for his part, would have the ideal opportunity to relaunch his career within an ambitious and competitive team.
