Paris Saint-Germain have made it a point to bring in more French talent, and they’ve started to follow through with the signings of Ousmane Dembele, Bradley Barcola, and Desire Doue. But they’re not done yet—especially with the need to strengthen their defense still on the table.
Unsurprisingly, the capital club adds another young French talent his summer. However, one player has been ruled out from the Ligue 1 side as they look to bolster their squad for the 2025-26 season.
While securing the top French players appears to be a priority for PSG, they won’t bring them just to add them to their squad, especially at a position with a logjam of talent like the midfield.

It will be interesting to see whether the French giants decide to leave their midfield as is or decide to make minor changes to arguably the position with the most depth.
