Maghnes Akliouche closing in on PSG switch

PSG are on the verge of signing AS Monaco star Maghnes Akliouche, with the deal understood to be in its final stages and only the last formalities left to complete.

The 24-year-old attacking midfielder, who can also operate as a winger, has emerged as a major target for the French champions in this summer’s window.

Maghnes Akliouche primarily operates as an attacking midfielder or right winger, utilizing his left foot to great effect while standing at 1.83 meters tall. His technical profile emphasizes elegance and flair, often described as that of a “young artist” on the pitch due to his stylish playmaking and ability to operate fluidly in both wide and central roles.

Reports in France suggest negotiations are now focused on the final details between the clubs and the player’s entourage, with the deal described as being at an “advanced” or “final” stage.

Akliouche has attracted strong interest from several top European sides, including Premier League clubs, after impressing for Monaco and the French national team.

However, he is believed to favour a move to PSG, who see him as a long-term piece of their attacking rebuild and an investment for both the present and future.

While the transfer has not yet been officially confirmed, the expectation in France is that, barring any late setbacks, Akliouche will complete his switch to the Parc des Princes soon.
