Malo Gusto, right-back for Chelsea, has become one of the most sought-after names in the transfer market. At 21 years old, the young Frenchman has proven to be a key player for the London team, attracting the interest of clubs like PSG. However, the possibility of the Parisian club securing his services could be hindered by the high price set by Chelsea for his departure.
The high release clause of Malo Gusto
The English club acquired Gusto in 2023 for a sum of 30 million euros, a significant amount for a full-back, but now seems like a bargain compared to what Chelsea would demand for his release. Stamford Bridge is reportedly unwilling to negotiate for less than 60 million euros, doubling the player's initial value. This figure has raised concerns for PSG, which, although keen on bolstering their defense, may consider withdrawing from the race due to what they believe is an excessive amount for a full-back.
With his ability to contribute offensively and defensive solidity, Gusto has drawn attention not only in the Premier League but also across Europe. His youth and potential place him among the most promising full-backs, partly justifying the high release clause set by Chelsea. For PSG, aiming to enhance their squad with young talents, Gusto's signing could have been a strategic move, but the price tag seems to have stalled negotiations.
The future of the young full-back seems, for now, to be at Stamford Bridge, where Chelsea trusts he will continue evolving as one of the most promising defenders on the continent. Should PSG decide to step back, other clubs might come into play, although few would likely be willing to meet the sum demanded by the London club.
