Manu Koné eyes psg move after world cup as roma set 50 million euro price tag

The summer transfer window is always active during a World Cup, and this year is no exception. With several clubs looking to strengthen their squads based on international performances, one name generating buzz is Manu Koné, the 25-year-old French national team midfielder. Born in Colombes and raised in the Paris region, Koné previously played for Paris FC. Now, a return to the French capital—this time to Paris Saint-Germain—could be on the cards.

Financial pressure forces Roma to consider selling Koné

At Roma, the Giallorossi are under pressure to balance the books before the end of the financial year on 30 June. As a result, Manu Koné has become a potential sale candidate. Several clubs have shown interest, including Atlético Madrid in Spain. However, the French international is reportedly not convinced by a move to the Rojiblancos. His priority lies elsewhere.

Koné’s dream move: back to Ligue 1 with PSG

If he leaves Rome, Manu Koné would prefer a return to Ligue 1, where he previously played for Toulouse FC. Another option is the Premier League. But his ideal destination for the summer transfer window, which closes on 1 September, is Paris Saint-Germain. A transfer could cost between €45 million and €50 million. Will PSG seize the opportunity or let it slip? The coming weeks will tell.
