To make up for the departure of Pablo Saravia Wolverhampton, PSG tried unsuccessfully to recruit a right-winger this winter. A number of leads were considered before loan Hakim Ziyech failed, including leading Moussa Diaby (23, six goals in 19 Bundesliga appearances this season).
Bayer Leverkusen’s attacking midfielder has perfectly maintained his ideal form and is popular with coach Christophe Galtier, according to RMC radio. But a move for the former Parisian would put pressure on finances and raise concerns about financial fair play. And the idea of spending a lot of money to take back a titi is not consistent internally.
As a reminder, Paris Saint-Germain let Leverkusen slip away for €15m in 2019.
