The transfer of Lucas Digne to Paris Saint-Germain appears imminent, with an agreement reportedly reached. The France national team left-back is set to depart Aston Villa and commit to Paris Saint-Germain until June 2029. Notably, Digne himself has already shared this significant news with his national teammates while they are gathered in the United States.

This transfer saga has unfolded with remarkable speed. Within mere hours, events accelerated, paving the way for Lucas Digne to rejoin Paris Saint-Germain a decade after his initial departure. Reports surfaced on Monday morning, quickly gaining traction as multiple outlets confirmed the developing story. The France international defender, who was under contract with Aston Villa until June 2028, became the subject of playful teasing within the national team locker room as the news spread.
Teased by teammates after press reports
“Lucas Digne’s move to PSG isn’t 100% finalized, but he will indeed sign with Paris Saint-Germain. He was actually teased by all his teammates because the France national team locker room is increasingly resembling the PSG dressing room. They ribbed him because they saw the news in the press,” I was informed on Monday evening, just ahead of the World Cup semi-final clash between the France national team and Spain.
Lucas Digne confirms three-year agreement with Paris Saint-Germain
I can also confirm that Lucas Digne has personally verified his agreement with PSG to his Bleus teammates. “Lucas Digne confirmed it to them because he has a three-year contract agreement with Paris Saint-Germain. All that remains is for the clause, reportedly less than €10M, to be activated once he is available after the World Cup. Lucas Digne is content to be Nuno Mendes’ backup for two key reasons: he chose this project because it perfectly suits his family, offering a very Parisian family environment, and his family adores the capital. He even has children who are fervent Paris Saint-Germain fans. Everyone is thrilled that dad is signing. He could have earned significantly more elsewhere, but he won’t be unhappy, and there’s only one city in the world called Paris.” The outcome of this transfer operation is now beyond doubt.
