Akliouche Focusses on PSG Amid Renewed Transfer Speculation

Key Takeaways:

• Maghnes Akliouche (24) was nearly transferred from AS Monaco last summer before a €70m valuation halted the move
• Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur had previously shown interest in acquiring the France international
• Paris Saint-Germain have now reignited their pursuit, with Luis Enrique personally driving the club’s approach

Transfer Rumours Surrounding Akliouche

Maghnes Akliouche, aged 24, was on the verge of departing AS Monaco in the previous transfer window, yet the club’s €70m asking price ultimately discouraged both domestic and international clubs from proceeding with a deal. As the summer window approaches once again, those same transfer links have resurfaced, according to a report from Sacha Tavolieri.

Premier League Suitors and Domestic Competition

Last summer, Akliouche attracted attention from the Premier League, with Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur reportedly considering signing the French international. In addition to interest from abroad, French sides have also kept a close eye on the AS Monaco forward.

Paris Saint-Germain’s Renewed Interest

Paris Saint-Germain, already long-standing admirers of Akliouche, have made fresh contact with the player’s representatives. The renewed pursuit is spearheaded by head coach Luis Enrique, who is believed to hold the forward in particularly high regard. Akliouche, for his part, is now reportedly prioritising a move to the Parc des Princes this summer, in line with PSG’s ambitions.
