How to mend Champions League wounds? In Paris, they like to spend a fortune on a crop of new players

After another early exit from the UEFA Champions League, the squad at Paris Saint-Germain will probably be turned completely inside out. And not for the first time.The star-studded squad from the French capital failed again in the round of 16 when faced with Bayern. Just like last year, PSG’s quest for the so-desired trophy ended at the first hurdle of the knockout round.Since the takeover by the Qataris in 2011, the Parisians have dreamed of nothing more than winning the Champions League. So far, however, that has only remained a dream.The squad will be strengthened again next season, of course. As reported by the French sports newspaper L’Equipe, PSG’s transfer decision-maker Luis Campos started work immediately after the loss to Bayern and drew up a list of players who should move to the River Seine ahead of the new season.##NAJAVA_MECA_7088003##The extension of superstar Lionel Messi should also have priority. His contract expires at the end of the season with no extension signed. But PSG want to continue to build on the world champion in the future. He and megastar Kylian Mbappe are rumoured to form the Ligue 1 club’s offensive line.For defensive star Sergio Ramos, on the other hand, it could mean farewell. His contract also ends in a couple of months, but according to the report, it will probably not be extended.Accordingly, PSG wanted to plug the leaky defence with Pau Torres (26) from Spanish club Villarreal and Milan Skriniar (28), who has long been on the French wish list, from Inter Milan.In midfield, Ibrahim Sangare (25) from PSV Eindhoven, Bernardo Silva (28) from Manchester City, Rayan Cherki (19) from Olympique Lyonnais and Borussia Monchengladbach’s Kouadio Kone (21) will come.Cool Stat 5 of Bayern Munich’s last 6 goals vs PSG in the UEFA Champions League have been scored by players who previously played for PSG (3 for Choupo-Moting, 2 for Coman).Tough break Paris 😅 pic.twitter.com/OikhlqwGfR— Ryan Gibson (Bayern Ryan) (@Bayern_Ryan) March 8, 2023 In addition to Messi and Mbappe, top attackers Victor Osimhen (24) from Napoli and Goncalo Ramos (21) from Benfica Lisbon should be deployed upfront in the future.However, it is not known how large of a budget will be available. At least $100 million should be due for a deal with Naples striker Osimhen alone. So there could be a record-breaking spending spree in Paris.But one thing is a fact: the French will not give up their dream of triumphing in the Champions League anytime soon.
