Despite having just conquered the Champions League peak for the first time, the failure of Chelsea had forced PSG's superstructure to act. And they are ambitious to recruit up to 7 rookies this summer.
PSG wants to recruit 7 more rookies after losing to Chelsea
As revealed from L'Equipe, PSG is planning to storm the transfer market. The goalkeeper position is not priority, unless Gianluigi Donnarumma suddenly left the team. The Italian goalkeeper has not agreed to extend the contract, while Man United is closely monitoring the situation. Chelsea seemed to have withdrawn from the race.
In the defense, the French capital team wants to add two central defenders. Illya Zabarnyi (Bournemouth) is emerging as a top goal, with an estimated fee of about 60 million euros. If Lucas Beraldo received an offer of no less than 30 million euros and left, PSG would immediately find the left -legged replacement.

The two wing corridors are also being focused on upgrading. Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes currently do not have a quality backup plan, so PSG wants to bring another left and right border defender. In the middle line, stability is still maintained with the trio Joao Neves – Fabian Ruiz – Vitinha. However, the team leadership wants to add an experienced midfielder. Joshua Kimmich was once the ideal name, but he extended his contract with Bayern Munich, forcing PSG to continue looking for another plan.
Sports Director Luis Campos is promoting the search for strikers. The two most prominent names are Victor Osimhen and Rafael Leao. Although Osimhen is being fiercely contacted by Galatasaray and approaching a blockbuster deal, PSG has not given up hope. They want to cling to the last race.
The summer transfer market is still more than six weeks to close, and President Nasser Al-Khelaifi is expected to maximize the shopping plan of coach Luis Enrique. PSG will focus again in the next two weeks to prepare for the new season, where they will open with an extremely important match, the Tottenham encounter in the European Super Cup match on August 13.
