Bought at a high price last summer, Désiré Doué is becoming monstrous at PSG. Repositioned in false 9, the former Rennes man works wonders. And it clearly sows doubt in the minds of Parisian leaders…

By signing a check for 50 million euros for the transfer of Désiré Doué, PSG hoped to have, from this season, a return on the investment. Discreet since his debut, the midfielder has just seized the opportunity offered by Luis Enrique to be positioned as a false number 9. His record in the last three matches is breathtaking: Decisive passer and scorer against Salzburg in the Champions League , Doué has just completed two Ligue 1 matches with two D passes against OL (3-1) and a goal against Monaco (2-4). The phenomenon is underway.
PSG is reviewing its plans?
As the winter transfer window approaches, which is due to open in a few days, PSG is getting a few knots in its brain. If the decision to let Randal Kolo-Muani leave has been made, that of recruiting a number 9 is still pending. Indeed, the return of Gonçalo Ramos (again scorer on Wednesday evening) and the Désiré Doué option now more than credible, Luis Enrique hesitates. Originally, he wanted to use Doué in the heart of the game, using his technique and percussion skills. Also perfect in a winger role, the tricolor nugget could encourage Paris to review its plans.
More of a winger?
Parisian reflection is at the heart of the discussions. Luis Enrique and Luis Campos will soon decide but the possibility of seeing PSG turn instead to a player in the corridor, as an alternative to Dembele and Barcola, seems more likely. In this register, boys like Rayan Cherki (OL) or Maghnes Akliouche (AS Monaco) would be perfect.
