Rayan Cherki, 21-year-old striker from Olympique Lyonnais under contract until 2026 following his extension last summer, was announced among the concrete targets of Paris Saint-Germain for the summer transfer window. The rumor is now returning of Parisian interest for the winter. It is RMC Sport which gives grist to this story. OL is in great financial difficulty and the club could well sell its young talent. PSG appreciates the profile, just like Luis Enrique. We now know that the door is open.
»The club would agree to sell in the event of a big offer around 30-45 million euros. »
PSG is not alone in this matter. There is quality in the player, but to recruit him, you will have to look at the price. Overpaying a player who has yet to prove anything is not a sustainable solution, especially when the club needs certainty.
On the other hand, if OL sell Cherki at a “reasonable” price then PSG would do well to be interested in him. He does everything better than Lee Kang-in, so why deprive yourself of it when we see that the South Korean is often lined up?
