Paris Saint-Germain has already formally completed moves for two players this month – Kylian Mbappé’s loan deal from Monaco was made permanent, while Juventus’ goalkeeping legend Gianluigi Buffon arrived free. However, they’re eager to continue making quality additions to their squad ahead of the new campaign. AC Milan centre-back Leonardo Bonucci, 31, has been attracting interest from a handful of top European sides over the past few months. Now though, latest reports suggest PSG are now prepared to battle Manchester United for the Italian’s signature – having made clear his intention to leave this summer.
Bonucci previously surprised many by leaving Juventus for rivals Milan in a €42m deal just last July. It’s almost a year to the day where the defender signed a five-year contract with the Rossoneri, reportedly becoming Serie A’s best-paid player in the process. He was said to have had some issues with manager Massimiliano Allegri before this, which was a factor in helping him decide against extending his stay in Turin – after six successive title-winning seasons there.
