PSG Talk

Nico Williams from Athletic Club is one player attracting a lot of attention, especially after his performance at UEFA Euro 2024 as he helped Spain lift the trophy.

Earlier this month, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano noted that PSG could wait in the winds and plot a swoop, much like Bayern Munich did with Michael Olise. Moreover, a report last month from CaughtOffside highlighted that Williams has become a target for several top clubs.

Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham, Barcelona, and Paris Saint-Germain are among those showing interest. Due to the clubs’ keen on Williams, the Catalan side might face a financial disadvantage.

Athletic Club are unwilling to negotiate for their best player and demands full payment of the release clause, which amounts to €58 million. Additionally, they are not willing to split the payments, so any team looking to sign Williams must pay the entire amount upfront.

Barcelona does not have much liquidity at the moment, so it is looking for ways to raise the €58 million. Cadena SER reports (h/t Diario AS) that Barcelona might seek another loan to pay the forward’s release clause.

If they manage to get it, the most challenging part might be creating salary space in the squad. For that to happen, some players would need to leave, preferably those with high wages, since Nico Williams will have a high salary.

Barcelona and the player are progressing on contractual matters after Deco and the player’s agent, Félix Tainta, met on Wednesday in Zaragoza.

Stade Rennais’ Désiré Doué is on the radar of various top European clubs this summer. Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, and Tottenham Hotspur have all been linked to the player.

Doué had an impressive 2023-24 season, playing in 43 games across all competitions and tallying four goals and six assists for Rennes. Moreover, his stock could rise further with a strong showing for France.

However, the player reportedly wants to settle his future before focusing on winning a gold medal with the French national team at the 2024 Summer Olympics. Journalist Abdellah Boulma has reported that Doué plans to finalize his future in the coming days.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano provided the latest on the Doué file as his reporting reveals that Bayern Munich and PSG are battling over Doué, with both clubs pushing for the French player.

Recent reports from last month suggest that Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, and Tottenham Hotspur are all reportedly interested in the Stade Rennais youngster.

According to Foot Mercato, PSG have made an offer of €40 million plus €10 million in add-ons for Doué. However, Rennes is firm on wanting €50 million plus add-ons. The negotiations are still ongoing.

Journalist Abdellah Boulma reports that Doué intends to resolve his future before the start of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, which begins this month on the 26th. The teenager is part of the French squad attempting to win a gold medal on home soil.

Spurs aren’t the only club keen on the player as Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, and Tottenham are all interested in the teenager.

The 19-year-old had a standout 2023-24 season, playing in 43 games and racking up four goals and six assists in all competitions for the Ligue 1 team. It will be interesting to see if Spurs beat the competition or if their efforts fall short.

Paris Saint-Germain are never shy from plucking young talent from another team’s youth system. Over the years, the Parisians have secured promising talents such as Xavi Simons and Cher Ndour.

Could this situation repeat itself? Tottenham Hotspur youth player Mikey Moore has a contract with the Premier League club until 2026. Clubs are keen on the player who became Spurs’ youngest-ever top-flight debutant.

HITC understands that Tottenham insist that they have no concerns about losing Moore this summer. The reporting also reveals that Tottenham have denied that Manchester United and Manchester City have made offers for their highly-rated 16-year-old midfielder.

Still, there’s interest abroad as Real Madrid, PSG, and Borussia Dortmund are genuinely interested in testing his loyalty.

Although Moore and his team have been in touch with several top clubs outside of England, he and his representatives believe he would be better off staying and continuing his development under manager Ange Postecoglou.

HITC concludes that Moore is expected to be a regular part of Postecoglou’s plans next season, and there are no current intentions to loan the teenager out.

Tottenham Hotspur could be looking to ramp up their interest in Stade Rennais’ Désiré Doué, understanding that the Frenchman is on the radar of various top European clubs this summer.
