PSG finally have their second summer signing, after Russian goalkeeper Matvey Safonov.
A month and a half after concluding the transfer of goalkeeper Matvey Safonov, PSG is finally moving up a gear in this summer transfer window that has been pretty flat until now. Lacking an agreement with Napoli regarding its main attacking targets – Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Victor Osimhen, the capital club is struggling to wrap up its off-season.
This is finally some good news for the Parisians, who are about to officially register their second reinforcement of the summer. L’Equipe assures this Wednesday that an agreement has indeed been reached, after tough discussions, between PSG and Benfica Lisbon for the transfer of the prodigy Joao Neves.
A transfer cheaper than expected
The sports daily announces the upcoming signing of the phenomenon for five years ” the coming days “. ” Paris and Benfica have reached an agreement after several days of negotiations for the 19-year-old defensive midfielder to arrive in the French capital. The transaction is estimated at 70 million euros, including bonuses. »
The Lisbon leaders have long remained stuck on the amount of the boy’s release clause – namely 120 million euros – a price considered prohibitive by the Luis Campos-Nasser Al-Khelaïfi tandem. To smooth things over and qualify the bill somewhat, PSG agrees to loan one of its undesirables, Renato Sanches, for the season, who will thus return to his training club.
