Man City, PSG Set Sights on Leicester City Wonderkid to Bolster Youth Ranks | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain have never been afraid to sign promising young teenage talent, Xavi Simons and Cher Ndour come to mind. As a result, the capital club appear ready to head to that well again, but face competition.

Under sporting advisor Luis Campos, the Parisians are targeting young talent and, if it’s possible, French. The Ligue 1 side are steering clear of big-name stars as they look to build a team with manager Luis Enrique instead of relying on individual skills.

A new report reveals that the capital club could be looking to add an English player to their youth system and be a gem in their academy.

Fichajes reported on Sunday that Manchester City and PSG have set their sights on 15-year-old winger Jeremy Monga, who plays for Leicester City’s Under-18 team. Nonetheless, the report claims that the Foxes are unwilling to let their promising player go so soon.

The young winger has impressed with his dribbling, explosive speed, and knack for assisting and scoring goals. Despite his age, his maturity and technical ability on the pitch have made him a standout player in Leicester’s youth ranks, catching the eye of several top-tier clubs.
