In the grip of difficulties in the defensive sector, Paris Saint-Germain is exploring several tracks, including the complicated one leading to Dayot Upamecano. But the Red and Blue are advancing especially in the Llorente file.
Paris Saint-Germain thought it was living a quiet transfer window. The residents of the Parc des Princes had completed the arrivals of Lucas Beraldo, who came to compensate for the long-term absence of Presnel Kimpembe, and Gabriel Moscardo. But the French champions had bad luck at the beginning of 2024. Indeed, Moscardo announced his injury on December 31. PSG has not questioned his transfer, but has not officially announced it while the 18-year-old will be absent for three months. Another midfielder, a little more experienced, could therefore land during this month of January.
Luis Campos and his teams will also have to find an additional central defender following Milan Skriniar’s injury. The latter was successfully operated yesterday and will miss several months of competition. To replace it, PSG is therefore already on the lookout to find the rare pearl. According to our information, the capital club is also looking at AS Roma where a certain Diego Llorente plays. The 30-year-old Spaniard linked to Leeds until 2026 has been on loan to the Giallorossi since January 2023. Under the orders of José Mourinho, the former Real Sociedad resident has been started 16 times in Serie A this season.
However, the Special One would not be against the idea of separating from it this winter. In addition, it should be remembered that Llorente is an element that Luis Enrique knows well since the PSG coach had him under his command when he was the boss of the Roja. The Parisian coach has also validated his profile. In any case, this is the hottest track of the moment, even if we can also tell you that another sexier option has been studied. The residents of the Parc des Princes had checked the name of Dayot Upamecano and had even approached the Frenchman born in 98. But this track leading to the Bayern Munich defender is very complicated. Like Joshua Kimmich, who was also contacted by Paris in January, a departure of Dayot Upamecano this winter is almost impossible.
Indeed, Bayern Munich, which has problems in this game sector and wants to recruit an additional player this winter, will not let go of its player. A very complicated file for Paris Saint-Germain. Luis Campos therefore chose to fall back on Diego Llorente. What is certain is that the French team is active behind the scenes to offer Luis Enrique a defensive recruit as quickly as possible, since very important deadlines are coming soon with the Champions League. Moreover, the Portuguese would also be well advanced in recruiting a right defender capable of replacing Nordi Mukiele if the latter were to pack up.
