Paris Saint-Germain's fondness for Barcelona's stars has been known for a long time. Thus, Neymar and Lionel Messi have come to Parc des Princes. But the French capital wanted to get another Barcelona star, but much younger.
Details: According to Fabrizio Romano, PSG were ready to make a fabulous €200 million offer to the Catalan club for Blaugrana player Lamine Yamal. That was already this year, when current Paris Saint-Germain leader Kylian Mbappe made it clear that he would be leaving for Real Madrid.
However, it all ended with discussions within PSG. Barcelona also made it clear that Yamal is not for sale, and he himself is happy in Barcelona, so he does not want to go anywhere.
Reminder: Earlier Barcelona signed Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny as a temporary replacement for Marc-André ter Stegen.
