PSG are already preparing for the January transfer window. According to PSGInside-Actus, the French champions are considering signing two players this winter: a defender and a midfielder. However, this targeted recruitment strategy could change depending on potential departures, particularly that of Illia Zabarnyi, whose future remains uncertain.
Paris Saint-Germain are not expected to make major changes to their squad this winter. Although several transfer targets have already emerged, the club’s management reportedly favors a limited recruitment strategy focused on strengthening the positions identified as priorities by Luis Enrique. According to PSGInside-Actus, two arrivals are currently being considered: a defender and a midfielder. The aim is to improve squad depth without disrupting the team’s balance.
PSG Target a Defender and Midfielder in January
In defense, PSG could look for a player capable of providing Luis Enrique with additional options. Atlético Madrid defender Marc Pubill is among the names mentioned by the same source. In midfield, Paris could also enter the market despite already having several quality options. Pablo Barrios, another Atlético Madrid player, is reportedly being monitored, with his technical ability and mobility potentially fitting Luis Enrique’s requirements. Álex Baena has also been mentioned as a possible target, although signing him could prove expensive.
Another situation could significantly influence PSG’s transfer plans: Illia Zabarnyi’s future. The Ukrainian international defender has been linked with a possible departure from the French capital during the upcoming transfer window, although nothing has been confirmed. Should he leave, PSG might need to reassess their defensive priorities and accelerate negotiations for potential replacements. However, without any major departures, Luis Campos and Luis Enrique reportedly intend to maintain stability and avoid unnecessary signings.
The January transfer window could also involve departures on loan. According to PSGInside-Actus, one or two young players could temporarily leave Paris to gain more regular playing time and continue their development before potentially returning to the club. This approach would also allow PSG to reduce their squad size without permanently losing promising talents. For now, no major arrivals or departures have been confirmed, but the club’s strategy appears clear: prioritize two carefully selected reinforcements rather than an extensive winter spending spree, unless an unexpected opportunity or significant squad change forces a rethink.
