PSG reach deal for Maghnes Akliouche in €50m transfer

Paris Saint-Germain have moved quickly after seeing a move for Ivory Coast forward Yan Diomande of RB Leipzig fall through. The Ligue 1 champions have turned their attention to other young targets and are working on two deals at once. Negotiations with Ajax for Mika Godts are still ongoing, but the Maghnes Akliouche transfer is essentially settled. Monaco have approved the sale of the 24-year-old, and the player has agreed personal terms with PSG until 2031. The total cost of the deal is €50 million. Official announcements are expected early next week. Akliouche recorded seven goals and 11 assists in 43 appearances last season.
