Work is already underway to strengthen their squad, and according to a report from Goal.com, they’re lining up a deal to be completed soon.

PSG transfer for Lokomotiv Moscow midfielder “95%” done

“It is grand time to say that at 95%, Batrakov will join PSG,” agent Dmitry Cheltsov said on Russian TV program “Comment Show”.

“The leaders of PSG and Lokomotiv have already had more than 10 telephone exchanges. This week, [Luis] Campos will travel to Moscow to finalise the transfer. At present, it would take an act of God to prevent this transaction: €25m for the transfer, about €5 to €6m for the salary,” the agent revealed.

The fact that PSG sporting director Luis Campos himself will make the journey to Moscow shows how close this deal is to be being done.

Batrakov will become the second Russian player in PSG’s squad, alongside goalkeeper Matvey Safonov.
