French giants Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly monitoring the progress of Sporting Lisbon’s Joao Pereira and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186’s Jorge Fucile as possible additions to their squad this winter.
The Parisians were thrust into the elite of European football, after their acquisition by the Qatari Investment Authority in the summer. Backed by their new found financial muscle, the club scoured the transfer market for some of the most high profile players.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Javier-Pastore-c18082 became the star attraction at the helm and the club’s monetary power when he was signed in a €42 million deal. Currently PSG are leading the Ligue 1 standings but new manager Carlo Ancelotti is keen to add more recruits to his side.
The Italian has been on the look for a top quality right-back and his ideal target is rumoured to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Maicon-c23157. However the Nerazzurri are adamant that their prized asset is not for sale despite the €15 million offer on the cards.
As a switch to the Parc des Princes looks highly unlikely for the Brazilian International, Ancelotti has targeted http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Joao-Pereira-c18664 and Jorge Fucile as fall-back options.
The Sporting Lisbon star has been a coveted star this season after putting up some eye-catching displays in the Primeira Liga. His International exposure with the Navigators has also helped his cause and propelled him to stardom in Europe.
However given that the player is quite crucial to Domingos Paciência’s plans, the club are unlikely to sell him, especially in the middle of the season. But a move for Jorge Fucile could arise; as he is not wanted at Estadio do Dragao.
Vitor Pereira has hardly utilized the wingback this season and according to his agent, he will be leaving the club either for Santos or some other team.
"If he does not go to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vitor-c36281 Pereira] does not choose him, not even as a substitute. This situation is not easy for him; he was one of the best players at the 2010 World Cup.”
He also added that there was no point in his client staying at Porto, as he was not included in the team and barely played this term.
"He must leave, at least for a year, because he does not have a place on the team,” Pablo Tomaduz was quoted as saying.
While Santos looks the most likely destination for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jorge-Fucile-c19163, PSG will be able to hijack the deal if they agree to churn out a large transfer fee. FC Porto are also keen offload the player on a permanent basis and should agree to a switch if the Ligue
1 outfit meet their evaluation.
The Portuguese giants have placed a €20 million buyout clause on the Uruguayan’s contract but should be willing to negotiate in order to lower their asking price.
