Transfer news – PSG wrap up €12m deal | OneFootball

Arriving at the summer 2022 transfer window, 27-year-old central/ full-back Nordi Mukiele has not established himself at Paris Saint-Germain. Hindered by injuries, especially in 2023, and rarely used by coach Luis Enrique, he was loaned to Bayer Leverkusen without a purchase option for the 2024-2025 season while his contract expires in June 2027. Now that he's back, we're waiting to know his future. Foot Mercato announces a move to Sunderland for €13M.

With the departure of Nordi Mukiele, PSG sends a strong signal: the downsizing operation is well underway. For several transfer windows, the Parisian management has been looking to limit the number of players in rotation while reducing the wage bill. The former Leipzig defender, rarely used by Luis Enrique last season, is one of those profiles considered non-essential.

His transfer, estimated between 12 and 13 million euros according to sources, not only frees up a place in the squad but also reduces a significant wage bill. Following the already confirmed or negotiated departures, this sale illustrates the new guiding principle: to prioritize a tighter, more competitive and less costly group, in order to approach the season with enhanced economic and sporting balance.
