The coach wants to continue adding forwards, but negotiations won’t be easy.

Paris Saint-Germain received great news over the weekend, when Kylian Mbappé met with Nasser Al-Khelaifi and they reached an agreement for the striker to return to training with the squad. Now everything indicates that he will be in Luis Enrique's plans for the second match of the Ligue 1 2023/24, which will be on Saturday, August 19 against Toulouse.

 

This will give more alternatives to the coach, who in the debut against Lorient used 3 of the signings in attack: Kang-In Lee, Goncalo Ramos and Marco Asensio. However, this did not give the expected results and the French side were unable to score any goals. That is why now the fans are looking forward to the return of 'Kiki', in addition to the arrival of Ousmane Dembélé who will also be available and could play his first official match for the club.

But all those players are not enough for Luis Enrique and the side is negotiating for two more forwards: Bradley Barcola and Randal Kolo Muani. The 20-year-old winger plays for Olympique Lyonnais and has attracted the attention of several European clubs for his good performances. But he would only be sold for €50 million. Moreover, according to journalist Fabrice Hawkins, Chelsea are interested in signing him and could compete with PSG.

Kolo Muani expressed his desire to leave Eintracht Frankfurt a few weeks ago, when his transfer to PSG was rumored. But the German side consider him an important player for the team and will do everything possible to keep him. Sporting director Markus Krösche said: “The situation has not changed. Randal still has four years left on his contract. We are the ones in control”.

 

They want to please the star

According to reports, PSG's interest in signing Barcola and Kolo Muani is linked to Kylian Mbappé's desire for the club to have more and more French players. That is why in the last transfer windows many South American and Spanish players have left, and teammates of 'Kiki' in the France National Team have arrived, such as Lucas Hernandez and Ousmane Dembele.
