Transfer targets

Arsenal tell Paris Saint-Germain: Vinícius Júnior is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Transfer targets

Paris Saint-Germain make their move for Ricardo Pepi

$34.4M on the table at Middlesbrough. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Match

Paris Saint-Germain make home a hard place to visit

13 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.

The dugout

Philipp Köhn: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Paris Saint-Germain have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market

Théo Mouyemé has one foot out of the door

Boardroom

Market

Philippe Legrand steps up from the Paris Saint-Germain academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Philippe Legrand has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Thomas Bernard steps up from the Paris Saint-Germain academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Thomas Bernard has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

In brief

  • Player ratings Renato Lopes beats them one at a time
  • The dugout Vitinha has become a man the manager trusts
  • Player ratings Marquinhos stands above it all
