PSG transfer news: Maghnes Akliouche set for summer move from Monaco?

While all eyes are on the 2026 World Cup, Paris Saint-Germain is already mapping out its summer transfer window, with Gonçalo Ramos likely to pack his bags soon. According to the latest whispers, Luis Campos appears to be targeting at least three new recruits, and one of them could be a young Ligue 1 talent.

In recent years, PSG has completely changed its approach. Gone are the blockbuster signings and superstars; the capital club now focuses on young talents through a kind of post-formation that has already paid off. This is especially true with Désiré Doué and João Neves, prodigies who have become undisputed starters in Paris.

Akliouche on the move

This trend could well continue with a young attacking midfielder from Ligue 1. That player is Maghnes Akliouche, already tracked last summer and now seemingly poised to leave during this transfer window. But don’t expect him to reveal much about his future. “What matters to me is enjoying myself, continuing to be happy on the pitch and keeping my sky blue,” the France international explained a few months ago. “I want to give pleasure to people, to my teammates, to repay the confidence Monaco has shown me. And above all, maintain my desire to progress and be more decisive. Talking about anything else makes no sense today.”

PSG in pole position

Currently at the 2026 World Cup with the France national team, he will nevertheless have to address his future at some point. According to insider information, Maghnes Akliouche has a strong chance of leaving AS Monaco this summer, with several clubs tracking him. PSG is among them and is currently the clear favorite to land him. In the principality, an offer is reportedly expected for the player, who is valued at around €50 million.
