Courted by PSG during the last summer transfer window, Rayan Cherki finally chose to continue the adventure with his training club, OL. The talented attacking midfielder, aged 20, remains in the sights of prestigious clubs, notably PSG. Luis Campos, the Parisian club's sports advisor, would always be attentive to the development of this player with a creative profile that he particularly appreciates. Les Gones would demand at least €25M.
The PSG ambitiously pursues its strategy of recruiting the most promising French talents. The recent arrival of Bradley Barcola, from l’OLand Désiré Douécoming from Stade Rennaisdemonstrates this commitment. Added to this is the emergence of young people trained at the club, such as Warren Zaire-Emery or Ibrahim Mbayewho embody the Parisian future. However, another French talent could have enriched this promising squad last summer: Rayan Cherki. The Lyon striker, renowned for his technique and creativity, was very close to joining the capital club. An agreement was even reached between the PSG et l’OLaround a transfer estimated at €15M. Negotiations could restart in the coming days.
Cherki will leave this winter?
Le feuilleton Rayan Cherki seems far from closed. According to information collected by The Teama departure of the young talent from Lyon remains indeed possible. And among the potential suitors, the PSG would not have said his last word. Luis Campossporting director of the capital club, continues to show a marked interest in the player. Seduced by the technical qualities and the potential of Cherki, Campos would always have in mind the idea of attracting him under the Parisian colors. A return to the offensive of PSG in the coming weeks could therefore not be ruled out.
A €25M transfer
To secure the services of Rayan Cherkiit will now be necessary to revise the check upwards. Exit the €15M estimated this summer: according to The Team, l’OL would now demand no less than 25 million euros to let his young attacking midfielder leave. An inflation justified by two key elements: on the one hand, the extension of the player's contract until 2027, and on the other hand, his return in great form with l’OL in recent weeks, where he has distinguished himself with convincing performances. THE PSG is warned.
