According to PSG Inside Actus on X, PSG is considering recruiting several players from Benfica Lisbon.
The Portuguese pipeline is in full swing at PSG. After Danilo, Nuno Mendes, and Vitinha, Luis Campos, PSG’s sports advisor, seems to want to further exploit Benfica Lisbon. According to PSG Inside Actus on X, several players are targeted.
Joao Neves, the talented midfielder, is in PSG’s sights. However, according to this source, recruiting him will be challenging. « Paris will go all out. » Last summer, « Benfica didn’t want to sell him, which is still the case this year, but a very large offer could change their minds. Many clubs are already interested. Chelsea, Barcelona, or Dortmund. Perhaps Paris will trigger the €120 million release clause. »
Marco Leonardo, Not for Immediate Signing
For central defender Antonio Silva, PSG is also persistent. « For the summer 2023 transfer window, Benfica didn’t want to sell him, and the release clause had to be paid. At that time, Paris had other priorities, but it is clear, and even certain, that for this summer, Paris will recruit one or two defenders. »
Marcos Leonardo, the young Brazilian forward, may also leave Benfica soon. Purchased last winter, he is attracting interest from major European clubs. However, the Portuguese club is not keen on selling him immediately.
Lastly, the case of Orkun Kökçü: the Turkish player has been in PSG’s sights for a few years and is not a priority for the club. However, an offer could be made if an opportunity arises.
