PSG continues to explore the transfer market to strengthen its midfield and a new avenue is emerging in Serie A. Nicolo Fagioli, young talent from Juventus Turin, attracts the attention of Parisian leaders. At only 22 years old, the Italian player has already distinguished himself with his technical quality, his vision of the game and his surprising maturity for his age. Compared to Marco Verratti, who marked the recent history of PSG, Fagioli could be the missing link in the Parisian midfield, in search of a new balance since the departure of the Italian to Qatar.
A player at the heart of controversy
Nicolo Fagioli is no stranger to Italy, where his rise has been meteoric, but he also hit the headlines last year because of a sports betting affair which temporarily slowed his progress. Suspended seven months for sports betting deemed illegal, Fagioli was able to return and be selected among the 26 Italian players to compete in Euro 2024. A talent who is experiencing a more complicated period since the arrival of Thiago Motta on the bench this summer .
Skriniar versus Fagioli?
While Juventus Turin is strongly interested in Milan Skriniar, PSG would like to take advantage of the discussions to discuss the case of Nicolo Fagioli. Estimated at 20 million euros by Transfertmarkt, the Italian remains affordable prey for Parisian leaders. It remains to be seen whether Turin decision-makers will agree to link the two files.
