PSG Misses Out on Haaland as Mbappé Departure Leaves Void

The transfer window in France has officially closed for over a week, and the Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) squad remains unchanged, particularly in light of Kylian Mbappé’s departure. While Erling Haaland’s name surfaced as a potential replacement, the Norwegian striker is set to extend his contract with Manchester City. Interestingly, he has reportedly included a secret clause in his new deal that may allow him to leave if he chooses to do so.

The exit of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid has created a significant gap at PSG, prompting club officials to pursue reinforcements over the summer. Exclusive information from Le10Sport.com indicated that the Rouge-et-Bleu were primarily on the lookout for a new left-winger, although the possibility of acquiring another striker was not dismissed. Ultimately, the Ligue 1 side did not secure any offensive reinforcements this summer.

Could Haaland Replace Mbappé at PSG?

The prospect of Erling Haaland joining PSG was a hot topic during the recent transfer window. The talented forward was seen as a strong candidate to fill the void left by Kylian Mbappé in manager Luis Enrique‘s plans. However, Haaland appears poised to renew his commitment to Manchester City. Nevertheless, he is reportedly preparing for the future, which could involve a departure from the Skyblues.

A Release Clause Hidden in His New Manchester City Contract?

According to SPORT, Erling Haaland is expected to incorporate a secret release clause into his new contract with Manchester City.
