Hungry for sport, he grew up to the sound of Formula 1 engines and the exploits of Ronaldinho. Today, with a Master’s degree in sports journalism, he no longer misses an F1 Grand Prix or a PSG match, his two passions and specialties.
After completing the surprise transfer of Russian goalkeeper Matvey Safonov, PSG remains active behind the scenes although nothing is decided at the moment. But the capital club has also suffered refusals, like that of Mathieu Udol who would have refused a role as third left back in the hierarchy. A boon for ASSE which could try to recruit the player relegated to Ligue 2 with FC Metz.
While waiting for a solution to be found for the television rights of the Ligue 1, several clubs are forced to put their transfer window on standby. Given its financial power, PSG is spared from this situation, and has already dropped €20 million, including bonus, for the transfer of the Russian goalkeeper, Matvey Safonov. But obviously, the Parisian club does not intend to stop there and is preparing in particular the succession of Kylian Mbappéwho signed Real Madrid. But that’s not all since at least one reinforcement per line is expected this summer.
Udol refuses PSG’s proposal
Thus, according to information from Moselle TVthe PSG would have tried to recruit Mathieu Howl. Author of a great season despite relegation to Ligue 2 of FC Metzthe 28-year-old would have been offered the role of third left back in the Parisian hierarchy, despite the serious injury of Lucas Hernandez which should not find the land before 2025. A proposal which did not convince Mathieu Howl who therefore decided to postpone the PSG.
A boon for ASSE
It must be said that the Metz side has no shortage of opportunities on the market. Indeed, Moselle TV adds that the Rennais Stadiumas well as theASSE are interested in Mathieu Howl who would have a much more important role in one of his two clubs than in PSG. It now remains to be seen whether the Greens, after beating the FC Metz during the jump-off, will also recruit one of the executives of the Lorraine club.
