Morocco international Brahim Diaz has emerged as a top transfer target for Paris Saint Germain ahead of the summer transfer window, as the club seeks to bolster their attacking options in preparation for the new season.
The reigning Champions League holders view Diaz, who plies his trade for Real Madrid as an ideal option to inject more dynamism into the forward line, given his ability to break down defenses in tight spaces and his versatility in attacking roles, as he can play as a playmaker or on either wing.
The French Ligue 1 giants are convinced of securing the signature of the Moroccan attacker due to his limited game time at Real Madrid. The former AC Milan attacking midfielder has been used sparingly at the Spanish club, with PSG prepared to offer him more minutes.
PSG is considering a loan deal with an option to buy, a move aimed at practically assessing the player’s performance before making a significant financial investment. Real Madrid, however, does not seem keen on the idea of permanently parting ways with him.
Real Madrid is approaching his future cautiously, valuing his technical abilities and not wanting to lose control over his trajectory, especially with a loan that doesn’t include an obligation to buy. This makes any potential negotiations subject to careful sporting and strategic calculations.
Diaz is keen about consistent playing time, having demonstrated on numerous occasions his ability to contribute whenever given the opportunity. However, securing a regular starting position remains difficult given the abundance of attacking options at Real Madrid.
Paris Saint-Germain is banking on a sporting project that would grant Diaz a pivotal role, as part of its efforts to sign players capable of making a difference in major continental competitions.
