Having already lost a number of their youngsters on frees when their contracts ran down, Paris Saint-Germain will be hoping to avoid any more scenarios going forward.
Players like Kingsley Coman, Dan-Axel Zagadou, Claudio Gomes or even Boubakary Soumaré all left for other clubs in hope of finding first-team football elsewhere, and when clubs like Arsenal and Chelsea are hovering around one of your 17-year-olds, it’s normal to be a bit worried.
That’s what’s currently happening with Kays Ruiz-Atil, who joined Paris Saint-Germain from Barcelona in 2015, and whose contract with the Ligue 1 champions expires in 2021.
They explain the player received a first offer from Paris Saint-Germain to renew his contract, but it didn’t ‘hold his attention’, as he and his entourage feel he deserved more wages.
The French side are now expected to offer him a new, improved offer, and there will be hope he accepts.
Paris Saint-Germain have the advantage as Ruiz-Atil has made staying in the French capital a priority, and it will be up to Chelsea and Arsenal to convince him otherwise if they get to that stage.
