Transfers – Lee, Ramos, Alvarez, Akliouche: PSG's plans

The 2026 summer transfer window is already taking shape within clubs, and rumors surrounding Paris Saint-Germain are piling up. This time, L’Equipe takes a look at possible departures and signings. These include Ibrahim Mbaye (an 18-year-old forward), Lee Kang-In (a 25-year-old midfielder/forward), Gonçalo Ramos (a 24-year-old striker), as well as Maghnes Akliouche (a 24-year-old attacking midfielder/winger from AS Monaco) and Julian Alvarez (a 26-year-old forward from Atletico Madrid).

“Lee’s replacement has already been identified”

“Blocked last summer, Lee Kang-In still has solid value on the market, particularly in Spain. Luis Enrique wanted to keep him this season, but if Atlético Madrid’s interest is confirmed, the situation could change, especially since PSG are closely interested in the Colchoneros’ Argentine striker Julian Alvarez (26, under contract until 2030). Lee’s replacement has already been identified: Monaco’s Maghnes Akliouche (24, under contract until 2028), who is also being tracked by Manchester City and Liverpool. Luis Campos is also keeping a close eye on the Russian market, with several reports requested in recent weeks on Matvei Kislyak (20, under contract until 2029). The CSKA Moscow midfielder, more defensive than Akliouche, nevertheless fits Luis Enrique’s playing principles.

“The fact that PSG are making moves for Julian Alvarez is also a sign of a possible development involving Ramos.”

Gonçalo Ramos also has suitors, and the question of a departure is more relevant than ever. The fact that PSG are making moves for Julian Alvarez is also a sign of a possible development involving Ramos. Unless the club decides to part ways with Ibrahim Mbaye. With two years left on his contract, the Senegal international (18 years old, 10 caps) is expected to get playing time this week. But the forward seems to be questioning his future, as interest from England is becoming increasingly persistent.”

As PSG are interested in Julian Alvarez and Maghnes Akliouche, Gonçalo Ramos and Lee Kang-in are playing for their place at PSG this week.

As always when it comes to a rumor, the utmost caution is needed. All the more so when the claims involve several different players without a single concrete element. It is already difficult enough to see clearly in a single case, so combining several is bound to contain inaccuracies.

Here, it mostly looks like a recap of recent rumors, still without the slightest certainty. Seeing Lee and Ramos leave this summer, with PSG attempting to replace them, would not be a surprise. But that is far from certain. The same applies to Mbaye, even if his limited playing time in 2026 at least points toward a loan move.

As for signings, Alvarez and Akliouche have been mentioned regularly lately and they are interesting players. However, there is no confirmation, and many other options remain possible. For now, these are only standard rumors, especially since Luis Campos knows how to spring surprises in recruitment.
