Man Ciy Eye Bold Statement Move for PSG Standout Who Man Utd Also Want | OneFootball

Desire Doue has made a name for himself in recent months, and his performances against Liverpool and Aston Villa have put him on the radar of fans who don’t usually follow Paris Saint-Germain.

The young Frenchman sealed the win over Liverpool by converting the decisive penalty in the shootout, knocking the English side out of the UEFA Champions League.

In the next round, Doue delivered again—this time with a brilliant goal to equalize against Aston Villa in the first leg. Paris Saint-Germain went on to win that match 3-1. With the teenager showing poise in high-stakes moments, it’s no surprise top European clubs are starting to take notice.
