🔥🏟️FC Barcelona rejected huge PSG offer this summer, says agent

Saint-Germain has elicited mixed reactions. While some see it as a masterstroke, especially with the signing of Joao Neves for under €60 million when his release clause was €120 million, others believe the Rouge & Bleu board failed in their attempt to secure a global superstar.

In this context, it’s worth noting the recent comments from Andy Bara, Dani Olmo’s agent, who suggests that PSG missed out on an emerging superstar from FC Barcelona. The agent stated:

“One thing I know is that Barcelona rejected a substantial offer from PSG for Lamine Yamal, valued at around €250 million.”

If these claims are accurate, PSG was prepared to break the bank for what is undoubtedly one of football’s greatest global prospects.

Recently, PSG’s sporting advisor, Luis Campos, praised Lamine Yamal but also made it clear that the Rouge & Bleu are content with their current players in that position, mentioning Ousmane Dembele, Marco Asensio, and Kang-In Lee.

Paris Saint-Germain’s transfer policy changed with Luis Enrique’s arrival. The French capital side will only pursue players who the Spanish coach wants, and while the club might miss out on some top targets, it’s hard to believe they would spend €250 million on a single, young player.

The team based at the Parc des Princes didn’t even consider signing backup full-backs, opting instead to rely on academy players and versatile individuals who can fill those roles, such as Warren Zaire-Emery on the right and Lucas Beraldo on the left.

Given this, I would take these statements with a pinch of salt. What is true is that with Kylian Mbappe’s move to Real Madrid, PSG freed up a significant wage budget that could be used for a future star signing. However, it seems that this is not imminent, as the Parisian club appears more focused on developing their own superstars, with names like Bradley Barcola, Desire Doue, and Zaire-Emery.
