PSG begins its transfer window! First big move already completed

It was time to celebrate on Saturday after the victory of PSG in the Coupe de France, but Luis Enrique had already switched to a transfer window which promises to be bubbling in the capital. “ It’s the end of the season, but the negotiations are beginning. With possibilities to improve the workforce. There is an impressive project. We will try to have a good transfer window, we are working with Luis Campos and the president. Making the right signatures is not easy, there are a lot of requirements. The players’ adaptation time must be taken into account. There are no holidays in top-level football. »

A speech which materializes in rapid actions since Paris Saint-Germain would be on the verge of completing its first reinforcement. This is the Russian goalkeeper Matvey Safonov.

Paris has its first recruit

According to information from L’Équipe, Matvey Safonov is currently in Paris to undergo the traditional medical examination prior to his signing. Unless the situation changes, the club will shortly formalize the signing of this Russian international, who arrives from Krasnodar, where he was under contract until 2029.

Safonov digitally replaces Keylor Navas, whose lease in Paris expires in June after 5 years in the capital. But this talented goalkeeper, number 1 in the hierarchy of goalkeepers in the Russian national team, could be expected to shake up the hierarchy. Described as impressive on his line and imposing in aerial outputs, the Russian would, however, be more perfect in his kicking game, to everyone’s surprise… It remains to be seen whether this profile will allow him to compete with Gianluigi Donnarumma.
