Still unknown to the general public last season, Willian Pacho arrived last summer at Paris Saint-Germain as part of a big transfer.
Even if the club from the French capital is not yet up to par with the best European clubs, such as Real, Bayern, Manchester City or Barça, in terms of reputation, signing for PSG remains a goal for many players. And when a player has the opportunity to sign a lease with Paris, he generally does not hesitate for too long, whether from a financial or sporting point of view. It is therefore necessary for those around the player targeted by PSG to be very careful during discussions, so as not to derail the future transfer with a rumor released too early in the press. For the club too, it is useful not to leak the negotiations, so that the player's price does not skyrocket too much on the transfer market. And last summer, for example, the Willian Pacho deal was done discreetly and ultimately resulted in a transfer of 40 million euros from Frankfurt. A surprising transfer for some, but which did not really surprise the main person concerned.
“Few people knew about it, we had to remain discreet”
“I knew I had had a big season in Frankfurt and that there would be opportunities. My agents talked to me about the possibility of coming to Paris. I spoke with the Parisian management, I really liked the project. I told my family about it, but few people knew, we had to remain discreet. I thought of the people in Ecuador who support me a lot. I knew it would impress them. On the other hand, I knew that the Parisians knew me little, that my transfer was something they did not expect”launched, on AFP, the Ecuadorian international, who is establishing himself as one of the best players in Luis Enrique's squad in this first part of the season. It's up to the 23-year-old central defender to continue on this path to show everyone that Paris did not overpay him by spending a large sum to put him alongside captain Marquinhos in the big L1 and Ligue 1 matches. Champions.
