Paris Saint-Germain remain in pole position in the race to sign Maghnes Akliouche. Despite strong interest from Liverpool, the AS Monaco attacking midfielder has reportedly made it clear that his preferred destination is the French champions.
Will Akliouche join PSG before the transfer window closes? Everything points in that direction, although negotiations have dragged on due to the transfer fee. According to Santi Aouna of Foot Mercato, Liverpool are also actively pursuing the French international.
PSG Remain the Player’s Preferred Destination
The Reds are reportedly prepared to submit a higher bid than PSG. However, the player’s desire could prove decisive, as Akliouche has made Paris his top priority and wants to continue his career under Luis Enrique.

This stance strengthens PSG’s position. The club has been tracking Akliouche for weeks and considers him one of its main attacking targets this summer. A five-year contract has reportedly already been agreed with the player, while PSG continue negotiations with Monaco over the transfer fee. Paris are believed to have offered around €40 million, whereas Monaco are holding out for approximately €50 million.
Monaco remain under financial pressure and are expected to complete several major sales this summer, a situation that could speed up discussions. While Liverpool have the financial power to bid more, PSG retain a crucial advantage: the player’s preference. Akliouche is determined to move to Paris and reunite with several French internationals as part of Luis Enrique’s project.
