Psg set to benefit from reduced transfer fee for maghnes akliouche

This summer, PSG is committed to advancing its transfer market strategy, focusing on acquiring promising young French talents. Within this framework, the prospect of signing Maghnes Akliouche has recently gained significant traction. Already a target last summer, the French international remains firmly on PSG‘s radar, with the club reportedly accelerating its efforts as Lee Kang-In‘s anticipated move to Atlético de Madrid becomes increasingly likely.

AS Monaco expected to reduce Akliouche’s valuation

My reporting indicates that PSG has vigorously reignited discussions for Akliouche, and developments could now unfold rapidly, partly due to the strong working relationship between the Parisian hierarchy and AS Monaco. Crucially, while Monaco was hesitant to part with Maghnes Akliouche last summer, they had set a formidable asking price of €70M for his transfer. This scenario has reportedly shifted dramatically. ASM is now reportedly under pressure to sell players and, consequently, will be unable to maintain such high demands, especially given that Akliouche‘s current contract extends until 2028. Although the precise figure Monaco expects has not been disclosed, it is anticipated to be significantly lower than the €70M sought last year.

Akliouche prioritizes World Cup before transfer talks

Despite the prospect of a swift resolution between PSG and AS Monaco regarding this transfer, Maghnes Akliouche recently expressed his desire to defer discussions about his future until after the World Cup concludes. He stated, « Will the next step be a transfer this summer? Yes, but honestly, I am truly focused on this World Cup. I know anything can happen, even during the competition. It’s a significant platform for exposure, but my concentration remains on the national team’s objectives. I also don’t want to disrespect my club by discussing transfers right now. There are other matters to attend to ».
