We ended up forgetting it as PSG has been shining for two years. However, Paris still has players under contract who we had forgotten were under contract with Paris. This is for example the case of Renatos Sanches, who is linked with the European champions for another year.
Arriving at Paris Saint-Germain on August 4, 2022 for an amount of 15 million euros from LOSC, the Portuguese international did not really shine in the PSG jersey. And a year later, Renato Sanches began a series of loans, passing through AS Roma, Benfica and Panathinaikos. And once again, the 28-year-old attacking midfielder makes his return to the Parisian squad, where it is obvious that Luis Enrique does not count on him at all. With only one year left on Renatos Sanches’ contract, the European champions are looking for a base for the former Lille player. According to Transferfeedthe Parisian leaders are prepared to release him from his last year of contract so that he irrevocably leaves PSG this summer, and in fact a club would be interested.
Qatar wants Renato Sanches
This club is based in Qatar, since it is Al-Gharafa, fourth in the Qatar championship, and which wishes to strengthen itself, in particular by bringing in Renato Sanches. Pedro Martin, current Portuguese coach of Al-Gharafa, is said to be involved in this matter. For Paris Saint-Germain, we will facilitate the operation, if it is confirmed, to the point that PSG could waive the 2 million euros, the amount of Sanches’ valuation on Transfermarkt. Because even if he hasn’t played for PSG for three years, the Portuguese player still has a salary of more than 6 million euros per year in Paris. The capital club had agreed to pay part of this salary during the various loans made since 2023. But by releasing him for Al-Gharafa, Paris Saint-Germain is definitively relieved of this large salary.
To see if the Qatari club matches this amount, because otherwise Renato Sanches would have a financial interest in staying until the end of his contract in a year. But Nasser Al-Khelaifi will probably be able to convince his counterpart at Al-Gharafa of the interest of recruiting the player with 32 caps with the Portugal team for free.
