Paris Saint-Germain target Barcelona defender Eric Abidal – Ligue 1 news
Ambitious Ligue 1 side Paris Saint-Germain have set their eyes on star Barcelona defender, Eric Abidal, as their new target, according to reports emerging from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899.
With the closure of transfer window in August, PSG had spent more than 80 million Euros and recruited nine players this summer. It appears their spending spree is far from over as Leonardo, the sporting director at Parc des Princes, has set his eyes on the
31-year-old.
The Lyon-born Frenchman’s contract matures in June next year and has been struggling to renew his contract at Camp Nou. With the disagreement between the two parties, Les Parisiens have already enlisted French international in their shopping list for the
mid-season window.
According to Spanish media, the Catalan giants have offered a conditional one-year performance-based extension to the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-Lyonnais-c40130 defender, whereas Abidal is searching for a permanent two-year deal. The Spanish club fears the
form of the player as the 31-year-old defender went through a surgery to remove a liver tumour earlier this year.
The Spanish sports daily reported that with persistent disagreements between Abidal and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, the former Lille man might consider moving to the capital club as PSG would be offering a three-year contract.
A product of Lyon Duchere, Eric Abidal was awarded the armband in the UEFA Champions League final against English Premier League giants Manchester United. Abidal managed to play the entire 90 minutes, though he had undergone a liver surgery, and was the
first person to lift Barca’s fourth UEFA Champions League title.
PSG are looking for a player with massive experience, versatility and a potential leader in the defence line. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Leonardo-c22056 might be looking forward for the winter transfer window and will be making sure he is able to recruit the French international and join
Parc des Princes camp this season.
Les Rouge-et-Bleu are aiming to win a treble and the management is busy gathering troops to reach their goal. The capital club have already shown their limitless financial ability by signing players like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kevin-Gameiro-c20721, which could convince
Abidal into leaving Camp Nou for Parc des Princes.
