Paris Saint-Germain shows a marked interest in Abdukodir Khusanov, defender playing for RC Lens. The Parisian club has intensified its efforts to recruit this promising player. This Friday, during the match against Stade de Reims, Khusanov will return to the field after a two-match suspension.
The return of Khusanov is excellent news for RC Lens, who are counting on him to strengthen their defense. Although Kevin Danso has experienced recent difficulties, it is on Khusanov that the club is banking on finding defensive solidity. The young Uzbek defender attracted attention with his performances.
His progress this season has attracted the interest of many European clubs, with PSG topping the list. Looking for a central defender for the winter transfer window, the Parisian club has already started discussions with the 20-year-old player's entourage. According to Foot Mercato, Luis Campos was involved in these efforts.
Abdukodir Khusanov, under contract with Lens until 2027, saw his value increase significantly. Acquired for 100,000 euros in the summer of 2023, it is now estimated at 20 million euros. Despite its non-transferable status, the financial situation of RC Lens could influence its decision.
The Artesian club must indeed achieve sales of 40 million euros this winter. One wonders if an attractive offer from PSG could lead Lens to review its position on Khusanov. The club's determination to keep their player will be tested in the coming weeks.
The prospect of Khusanov joining PSG could have significant repercussions on the capital club's recruitment strategy. For Lens, the challenge is to find a balance between sporting ambition and financial imperative, in an ever more competitive transfer market.
