2 unexpected PSG moves before the end of the transfer window

2. Cher Ndour will be sold to Fiorentina in Italy

The first case is the sale of Italian midfielder Cher Ndour, who was not fully included in PSG’s plans despite having shown great potential.

Ndour, who was on loan at Besiktas in Turkey, performed well in his time there, standing out as a solid defensive midfielder.

However, the Parisian club decided to transfer him to Fiorentina for a figure close to 15 million euros, including bonuses.


1. Marco Asensio is loaned by PSG to England, Aston Villa

The second move, much more surprising, was the loan of Marco Asensio to Aston Villa, where the player hopes to have a unique moment in England.

Despite having been a key player at the start of the season with PSG, the Spanish striker lost prominence with Luis Enrique’s new tactical formula.

Given his lack of minutes, the player decided to seek more continuity in the Premier League, and the club agreed to loan him to Aston Villa, where he hopes to recover his best level.


Marco Asensio seeks prominence in the Premier League

At 29 years old, Marco Asensio is still a talented footballer with great offensive ability, but his situation at PSG was not ideal.

Throughout the season, he played 16 games, adding 2 goals and 4 assists in more than 700 minutes of play, according to Transfermarkt.

However, these numbers were not enough to convince Luis Enrique to give him a more important role in his scheme.

Now, the Spanish winger will have the opportunity to prove his worth at Aston Villa, a team that is in the midst of the fight to qualify for European competitions.

His loan move represents a key opportunity to regain competitive rhythm and return to being a protagonist in a league as demanding as the Premier League.

With these moves, PSG continues to adjust its squad, ensuring that the team is in the best possible condition to face the remainder of the season.
