Luis Enrique requests the signing of a goalkeeper

The PSG has requested information about Gregor Kobel, Swiss goalkeeper of 28 years from Borussia Dortmund, according to Sport Bild. The Parisian club is considering his signing, estimated at around 40 million euros, although the goalkeeper is negotiating a possible renewal with the German club, with a contract until 2028.

The PSG continues to monitor Gregor Kobel despite confidence in Safonov

The PSG's sports management keeps the possibility of adding another goalkeeper open. Despite Luis Enrique's public confidence in Matvey Safonov, the French club has gathered information several times about Kobel's situation and his future plans. So far, this monitoring has not resulted in a formal offer to Borussia Dortmund.

The search for alternatives does not mean that the Asturian coach has ruled out Safonov. The Russian has played a significant role in goal, but PSG is studying the market to evaluate its options for upcoming windows. The interest in Kobel aligns with that planning and places the Swiss international among the names being considered by the club.

Kobel has accumulated nine Bundesliga matches in the 2026-27 season, according to the official competition records. The goalkeeper arrived at Borussia Dortmund in 2021 from Stuttgart and has remained a starter during his five seasons with the team.

Borussia Dortmund wants to renew Kobel before 2028

The main obstacle for PSG is the goalkeeper's contractual situation. Kobel is signed until June 2028, but Borussia Dortmund wants to initiate talks to extend the contract and reach an agreement before the end of 2026. The intention of the German club is to resolve the future of their starter as soon as possible.

The player would be open to continuing in Dortmund, although the renewal is not yet finalized. Reports from Germany suggest that both parties view the extension positively, but the interest from other teams keeps the possibility of a change of scenery open.

Economically, the 40 million euros appear as an estimation of Kobel's value in reports about the Parisian interest. It is not an offer presented by PSG nor a figure that Borussia Dortmund has confirmed as a price for departure.

The timeline may prove decisive. Dortmund aims to progress with the renewal before the end of the year, while PSG will remain attentive to the goalkeeper's response and the evolution of negotiations. If there is no agreement, Kobel's option could gain traction in the upcoming markets; if he renews, Luis Enrique will find it more challenging to incorporate the Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper.
