60M€, Al-Khelaïfi wants to dislodge an English jailer!
Nasser Al-Khelaïfi intends to provide answers to the repetitive failures of PSG in the Champions League and could make a splash in England.
An English international in the sights of Paris SG
After a new humiliation in the Champions League, the leaders of Paris Saint-Germain are already active for the next summer transfer window. Several targets are thus in sight and among them is an English international. Revealed in Marcelo Bielsa’s time, Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips would be of great interest to PSG.
Indeed, according to information from the British newspaper The Timesthe emissary recruiters of Nasser Al-Khelaifi have been watching the 26-year-old England international for several months now. Since David Beckham (January-June 2013), no English player has played for Paris Saint-Germain and Al-Khelaïfi would like to attract Kalvin Phillips, which would be an interesting reinforcement for the Red and Blue. But the case does not look easy for the Parisians.
PSG Mercato: Real Madrid is also targeting Kalvin Phillips
Eager to reconstitute its group for next season, Paris Saint-Germain would like to offer the services of Kalvin Phillips. On the strength of his performances with the Peacocks, the player trained at Leeds United would have seduced Parisian recruiters, who would have written glowing reports about him.
However, Nasser Al-Khelaifi and his people will have to be very convincing since last summer, the management of the current 16th in the Premier League had rejected an envelope of 60 million euros from West Ham for the native of Leeds. This season being more complicated for the club coached by Jesse Marsch, the price of the defensive midfielder would probably be lowered at the end of the season.
Under contract until June 30, 2024, Phillips, Kalvin Phillips would also be in the plans of Real Madrid. Other British sources even specify that PSG would have approached the Leeds board to test the waters. Holder with the English selection during Euro 2020, Kalvin Phillips could therefore change air by joining another championship next season. In addition to Paris SG, considered a serious track, other Premier League teams would also be in ambush for Kalvin Phillips.
