PSG deny making €250 million offer for Lamine Yamal | OneFootball

According to a report by L’Équipe, Paris Saint-Germain have denied the rumours from the Spanish media that they made an offer of €250 million to FC Barcelona for Lamine Yamal (17) over the summer.

Reports emerged earlier following a statement made by Enric Masip, an advisor to Joan Laporta the president of Barcelona, during an interview with El Chiringuito. The former handball star told the Spanish outlet that “The president has already said that he had an offer of €250 million that he had rejected, that he had never considered it. It came from France.”

However, the club told L’Équipe that they deny this story “a million per cent.” They state that it would have been impossible for the club to have made that offer over the summer as they could not afford that amount.

They do confirm that their sporting advisor Luís Campos made inquiries during the window over the player’s situation, but this is not out of the ordinary, and he is accustomed to making contact with clubs and keeping files on players.
