The last days of the transfer market promise to be intense for Paris Saint-Germain. The Parisian club is working against the clock to finalize departures and possible signings before the deadline. One of the operations that keeps the sports management on edge is the potential departure of Milan Skriniar to Al Nassr, the team where Cristiano Ronaldo plays. The transfer of the Slovak defender is crucial for PSG to progress in signing Tomás Araújo, a young center-back from Benfica.
The Spanish coach aims to strengthen the defense with youth and talent
Araújo, 22 years old, has attracted interest from several top clubs, including Crystal Palace, which made an offer for him in the summer, rejected by the Portuguese club. However, as reported by the newspaper AS, PSG, guided by Luis Campos’ knowledge of the Portuguese market, sees in the defender an excellent opportunity to reinforce their defense. Araújo's ability to perform both as a center-back and right-back is an additional attraction for Luis Enrique, who needs to strengthen the defense due to the prolonged absences of Lucas Hernández and Presnel Kimpembe.
Although a formal offer for Araújo has not been presented yet, PSG has already started contacting the player's representatives, confident that the deal will materialize if Skriniar accepts the Saudi club's proposal. Araujo, regarded as one of the promises of Portuguese football, could provide the solidity PSG needs in the final stretch of the season, although it is well known that the Portuguese club is one of Europe's top sellers, and the departure of the young center-back could come at a high price.
