Man City Willing to Make €180M Blockbuster Move for PSG Star | OneFootball

Desire Doué has been turning heads lately, impressing fans far beyond the usual PSG following. His displays against Liverpool, Aston Villa, and in the UEFA Champions League final versus Inter Milan have made him hard to ignore.

Moreover, he was instrumental in PSG’s victory over Liverpool, scoring the decisive penalty in the shootout that eliminated the English club from the Champions League and the final.

Following the PSG standout’s breakout in the 2024-25 season, transfer rumors about Doué emerged.

TEAMtalk previously reported that Manchester City are looking to make a bold move for Doué, with Manchester United and two other Premier League clubs also showing keen interest in the young talent.

Pep Guardiola is reportedly a big fan of Doué and is eager to bring him to the Etihad. City scouts have been keeping a close eye on his recent performances, attending several of matches in recent months.

While the young Frenchman didn’t make a move during the summer transfer window, as PSG weren’t going to sell their rising talent, that doesn’t mean interest in the player hasn’t waned.

Manchester City are ready to take a major step and is preparing a massive bid for Doué. Fichajes reported on Monday that the Premier League club could offer as much as €180 million to secure his transfer.
