Well on their way to acquiring Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in the coming days, PSG has not ruled out recruiting a second player in attack this winter. A striker who will not be Jhon Duran, the Colombian striker for Aston Villa.
With the imminent recruitment of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for around 70 million euros, excluding bonuses, PSG will greatly increase competition on its left wing. The Georgian is not arriving to be a replacement and Bradley Barcola will have to work extra hard to keep his place, unless he is realigned or sent to the right wing.
This arrival of Kvara will perhaps not be the only one in Paris in the offensive sector this winter. Randal Kolo Muani must leave PSG by the end of the transfer window and Marco Asensio could also leave to find more playing time. In today's edition, L'Equipe thus ensures that PSG is not ruling out a second offensive recruit by the end of the transfer window.
Jhon Duran will not join PSG this winter
Unless there is a huge surprise, this second attacker will not be Jhon Duran. The 21-year-old Colombian striker, who extended his contract last November until 2030 with Aston Villa, pleases PSG, as revealed last week by RMC Sport. But according to L'Equipe, Duran is not going to leave the Villans this winter and the first discussions about him concern next summer.
This Tuesday, The Athletic also provides an update on the Duran file and confirms that Aston Villa will not sell him in January, despite the interest of several clubs. The English-speaking media adds that the team coached by Unai Emery values Jhon Duran at more than £100 million, or around €119 million. An amount which risks chilling more than one courtier, including PSG.
