Transfer news – Update on the future of PSG’s backup players

This Friday morning, Le Parisien took stock of the situation and possible futures for the substitutes at Paris Saint-Germain, including Gonçalo Ramos (24-year-old striker), Lee Kang-In (24-year-old midfielder/forward), Senny Mayulu (19-year-old attacking midfielder), and Ibrahim Mbaye (17-year-old striker).

Gonçalo Ramos

“If he aspires to play more, he certainly hopes to instill doubt in his coach's mind, the former Benfica player does not feel, for the time being, confined to his role as a substitute. 'Yes, I'm staying at PSG, that's for sure,' he announced on Wednesday to dismiss any intentions of leaving due to a lack of playing time.”

Lee Kang-In

“This relegation has not always been well received by this man with a strong character who wants to regain thickness. His versatility and technical finesse make him a player coveted by different teams, while his contract runs until 2028. PSG will be listening to offers and his situation will be worth watching until the end of the transfer market.”

Senny Mayulu

“The absence of recruits in midfield demonstrates the confidence given to the former youth academy player with an irreproachable state of mind. Linked to PSG until 2027, Mayulu embodies the future of the Parisian club and should soon be offered an extension.”

Ibrahim Mbaye

“Under contract until 2027, the winger has the trust of the staff and is aware that he has a card to play in the attack. Kvaratskhelia, Doué, and Barcola will compete for the two starting positions, but Mbaye will have space to show his worth.”

Overall, there is the idea that each one could have a real chance, on their own scale. Many have mentioned a departure from Lee or Ramos as likely, but they may have forgotten that PSG needs players, that they have their place at the top level, and that their mentality is also an asset. Building a football team is not just about taking the most talented players together and hoping to achieve something.

And we must keep in mind that Lee and Ramos have real qualities, even if they lack consistency in Paris. Mayulu and Mbaye should also be able to show themselves. We have already seen that the first has scored important points, even if there is still room for improvement. The young striker should be able to get a bit more playing time over the next few months, if he continues to deserve it in his training sessions and matches.
