AC Milan, PSG Set Sights on Chelsea’s Promising Talent Starring on Loan at Strasbourg | OneFootball

As the last few transfer windows have shown, Paris Saint-Germain are looking at Ligue 1 more to bolster its young squad. The capital club has secured Bradley Barcola and Desire Doue from fellow rivals in France’s top flight.

PSG was often criticized for not making a stronger effort to secure top talent from Ligue 1, but under sporting advisor Luis Campos, that thinking has changed, and now there’s another prominent player in France who has caught the Parisians’ attention.

On loan from Chelsea, Andrey Santos has become a revelation for RC Strasbourg this 2024-25 season as they push for a UEFA Champions League qualification. Nonetheless, Santos’ form has drawn interest from other clubs.

Fichajes reports that PSG and AC Milan are eyeing Santos to strengthen their midfield in the upcoming transfer window. Milan sees Santos as an ideal option, especially following the recent departure of Ismael Bennacer.

Moreover, the report also claims that Chelsea have not yet made a final decision on his future, with Milan considering a loan without an option to buy. Meanwhile, PSG could make a move to sign him permanently.

The 20-year-old, who joined Chelsea in January 2023 from Vasco da Gama, is still working to make his mark at the London club. He’s had a few loan spells, but his time at RC Strasbourg has been the most productive, with 10 goals and three assists in 27 appearances this season.
