PSG Transfer Thread ARCHIVES

[Catracho_Azul]

on planetepsg, the psg fansite I am active in, a person who was at the training yesterday, said that Boniek Garcia was very active, used his right foot well, and was congratulated for his good performance by the staff.

I see you support a Hondurian team. Do you know more about this player, and do you think he could fit in the french league?


he'd do very well, he's very fast and physical, a shut down defender on the flanks. and yea he is a national team player, so we expect to see him in our Aug20th qualifier against mexico and he's one of the best defenders in Honduras, so i think he'd fit very well, I can see him in a PSG kit and within the set-up quick.

Anyone hear anything about PSG being interested in Costa Rican midfielder Bryan Ruiz of Belgium club KAA Gent? There are a few sites that mention that PSG and other French teams might be interested in him after his performance against PSG last weekend...and his great performance last season in the Belgium league. Other clubs that have also shown interest are SC Heerenveen, Napoli, Olympiakos, and Anderlecht.

yo se que con mucho orgullo te expresas solo de rumores, pero nosotros lo tenemos en prueba y con la vestimenta de entrenamiento... ya se esta cerrando la ventana de fichajes, no creo que bryan ruiz sea para la liga francesa, nosotros somos mas fuertes y rapidos... uds tienen mas calma y tecnicam aunque sus afrodescendientes son buenisimos, tipo wanchope... pero nuestros jugadores son la mejor materia prima

Thanks.
Once again, I am relying on those who are in France and who go everyday to the Camp des Loges to give us at planetepsg updates on the training and so on. They say he is quite talented with his feet, quick, agile, and despite not being the biggest of players, is not afraid to hit hard when needed.
However he seems to have defensive problems, he often goes forward, but has trouble coming behind to defend. In other words, they qualify him as a Ceara-bis, but being younger (and so able to learn and develop) and us having no viable replacement on the right flank, he is most likely going to be proposed a contract. I think he is a good signing.
Besides, we have been playing Bernard Mendy on that spot for years. We are used to Nanard's worst, now that he's gone to Hull, I don't think Boniek can do any worse than him :D

Hey any rumors about Bryan Ruiz and a move to PSG? Read that he left a very good impression after the friendly KAA Gent and PSG played on saturday.

I have not seen any videos of the match, but from accounts of those who did go to the game, they are unanimous in praising Bryan Ruiz, or as they first called him before knowing his name, "the number 20 with the blond hair" as the best player on the Gent side, having given quite a misery to our defense on a many occasions.
However his name has never been mentioned in the french media.

Did anyone read about his debut for Hull? He missed a penalty and then gave away two! Maybe getting rid of him was a good move.

Ummm.mmm we didn't get rid of him. He didn't want to renew his contract.
(Rolls eyes)

Bernard's mistake was going to Hull. They'll go back down after one season in the EPL. I hope the money's good for him.

why did they get rid of him??

[Gotham PSG]

it is not official yet, it has been announced by a newspaper Le Parisien, that apparently, while he was being very good in the training, he showed all that he lacked during the trip in Portugal. Another idea is that he seems to play better as a right midfielder, and we are a little too stacked in the midfield to add one more.

It is very confusing, and I personally don't believe it yet. Let's wait until something shows up on the club's official website.

He looked like a Right Midfielder on Saturday and we're stacked there but it would be ashame to release him since he's shown that he's more than capable of playing well for PSG. I'm also hoping what I've read is wrong but....

well the rightback position isn't that urgent, at least, compared to other spots. And we have Diakhaby rising up through the youth teams.

Our real urgency is in the front and back. It's a very good thing they finally dropped Briand, because he is not worth more than 7 million euros on his best of days. We all know Rennes were trying to bullshit us with a phony price, by lying to their own player, and I personally would love it if he could break his contract with them to piss on Moustache. But then again, Le Guen vs Rennes.... Breton contre Bretons, it was quite obvious this thing would have gone on and on for a long time :D
Some say that if Briand does continue with a bad mood, Rennes will eventually agree to stop sticking crepes up their butts and lower his price to a more reasonable amount, but around mid-August, as to give Briand less time to adjust to the new club.

The other red hot rumor is with Kezman. Some say he will sign on tuesday or wednesday. Perhaps. I am not his biggest of fans. He is a poor man's Pauleta, and with his attitude, I wouldn't be surprised if we try to sell him next summer. And I think even the direction at the club recognizes the fact, that's why they really really wanted to get him on loan rather than a buy.... that and the fact that Colony wants to spend as little as possible :D

For the defense, Charly said Basa is welcome if he accepts the pay he originally agreed to before trying to swindle us. Screw him, if he doesn't want to come, let him stay in Le Mans. Where, it must be said, he earns far less than what PSG offered him.
Our backup plan, sure it's Traore, but is also Muller, who is on a free transfer, which the management really likes. Other than that, some rumours link us to Sylvestre from Manchester United. It is said that he might accept a paycut to play with us, which is interesting because he wasn't willing to do so when Bordeaux contacted him. I don't know how valid this rumor is. As to the player. I am far from being a fan of his. But who knows, he might fit the bill.

As to Thuram, it was not to be :(

[Fonsos]

I definitely agree with you regarding Silvestre. I've never been a big fan of his nor have I ever thought he was that good.

I don't know much about Kezman but everything I'm hearing hasn't been on the good side. I'm also liking what I've seen from Pancrate but definitely agree that we need a striker.

I don't understand why we just won't sign Muller and be done with it. He's already stated he love to play at PSG, so in my opinion we should do it and get on with finding a striker.

I say find a young player from Serie B in Italia for a year's loan. Juventus has enough playing at that level who could probably fit the bill for us and on the cheap -- lol.

It's a bit unfair to be that down on Briand, he didn't have the best of seasons though he did do well during much of the season previous (which led to him earnings his caps). I think, given some of the sums we're seeing this mercato, that he is not that overvalued. Besides, he is actually a player who is much desired, given that attack is likely the biggest question mark on this apparently much improved team.

I think the appeal of a player such as Silvestre is the idea he brings a winining mentality since he's been on so many winning teams, despite being no more than on the fringe with Les Bleus.

In any event, it appears a very good offseason for PSG, the only concern I would have is whether the team can gel with so many additions, though if they are able to, I believe this team can be very, very good.

[SportBoy333]

I would have signed Kezmen, Briand and brought back Pauleta but I know thats not possible and now they will end up with just 1 of those 3 and that really isnt enough.

[guignol]

my personal opinion is that all three of them might not have amounted to much, they all have big question marks.

[SuperSebGrimaldi]

I don't think there is a single striker in L1 who does not have a question mark over his head.

I'm not sure what you mean. Benzema, Cisse, Cavenaghi and Gomis will all score plenty of goals. No worries.

[NicolasN.]

According to L'équipe, PSG and Fenerbahçe reached to an agreement. Kezman will join PSG on a 1 year loan. This loan includes an agreed fee of 4 million Euros if PSG avoid relegation.

That's pretty cheap. Congratulations to Roche & CV...I must be wrong, congratulations to Thiriez. He suggested that Makelele and Giuly came back to France because of him so thanks mustache.

[SportBoy333]

Who do you think will score more goals this year. Kezman or Klasnic ?

haha, the best part is when he tried to suggest that the league is getting stronger because of the new signings from abroad outweigh the "few" youngsters who left abroad... and when you think of it, it was of old players who will retire in a year or two!
What a bunch of idiots run this league. And when you think of how hard they tried to kill this club, now only to see them happy to have Make and Giuly come back.
And perhaps even Kezman.
Who I do not believe is our solution. He is an average player, with a bad mentality, who will join a long list of failures, Kluivert, Carew, and those other guys who were in Lyon or Monaco. I can't believe I forgot their name :(

Still, I think all we need is a good defender, and maybe a solution for our flanks, and we can start the season knowing we at least should finish midtable.

As to that Hondurian, yes, he was dropped. It seems the club eventually did not believe he would be worth it. Well that's too bad, hope he does better elsewhere. And more importantly, that we find something! We are running light on defense.

Rumors have Givet going to West Ham for 2.2 mil Euros. I'd take him for that and put Camara on the right.
