After Dembélé and Kvaratskhelia, PSG want to tie down another key man

On the sidelines of the summer transfer window, Paris Saint-Germain is looking to keep the players who make up its core group. After Ousmane Dembélé (29-year-old forward) and Khvicha Kvaratshkelia (25-year-old forward), it is now Désiré Doué’s turn — the 21-year-old forward currently tied to PSG until 2029 — to have a contract extension offer in the works. This had already been mentioned, and it is now confirmed by L’Equipe.

“Désiré Doué would also like to commit for the long term.”

As expected, the end of the transfer window has allowed the Parisian executives to move into a different phase of their strategy: contract extensions. While Ousmane Dembélé is close to signing a new deal until 2030 and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is in advanced talks with the club, Paris has also sent an offer to Désiré Doué, through 2031 or 2032. In two years in the French capital, Désiré Doué has reached another level. His new contract will therefore come with a “significant” salary increase, “so that he is paid in line with his importance within the team,” the club’s management explains. For his part, Désiré Doué would also like to commit for the long term.

Quite logically, the capital club wants to keep its best players and extend those with the highest value on the transfer market. At the moment, given his age, room for improvement, and performances over the past two years, Désiré Doué is one of the most highly rated players. Extending him also shows that PSG is keeping the same ambitions for the years ahead.

On the player’s side, even though there has been no official statement, the French international has always declared his love for the Red and Blue shirt. Under these circumstances, it is hard to imagine the player turning down the extension that will be offered to him, even if, in football, anything is possible.
