Transfer news – Digne edges closer to PSG, for under €10m? | OneFootball

Lucas Digne, Aston Villa’s 32-year-old left-back (33 on July 20) under contract until 2028, and a France international who was already at Paris Saint-Germain from 2013 to 2016, has been reported as a PSG target for a return by activating his release clause of around €10 million. Le Parisien and journalist Abdellah Boulma have now also confirmed that this deal is very advanced.

Abdellah Boulma:

These are new confirmations, enough to suggest there is something solid behind it. Even if that is not enough for certainty, because we know the transfer window can move very quickly. For example, nothing had been mentioned about this case this morning. Now, Digne is getting closer to a return to PSG in an attempt at a second spell more convincing than the last one, strengthened by his progress and experience.

He would probably come in as backup to Nuno Mendes (24), but attention should also be paid to the real competition that coach Luis Enrique values so highly. In any case, he would be a very good option for PSG, as the full-back has shown all season with Aston Villa and right now at the World Cup. His release clause, estimated at around €10 million, can be seen as a good opportunity, with potentially interesting negotiations for reinforcement in a position where there is a “lack” in Paris. Lucas Hernandez (30) is there, but his very defensive profile does not really match Luis Enrique’s idea. One can imagine him being used more centrally, while Lucas Beraldo (22) now plays in midfield. Still, let’s wait before drawing firm conclusions, as nothing has been signed yet.
