The Paris Saint-Germain recently finalized a significant summer transfer, seeing Gonçalo Ramos move to AC Milan. The Portuguese forward, known for his impactful performances off the bench and a member of his national squad for the World Cup, concludes his time in Paris having established a notable club record.
While the summer transfer window remains relatively quiet due to the ongoing World Cup in North America, several major deals have materialized. This Tuesday, Paris Saint-Germain confirmed the official transfer of Gonçalo Ramos to AC Milan. The Italian club reportedly paid €74M for the Portuguese international’s services, a figure that could rise to €80M with performance-based bonuses.
Gonçalo Ramos departs with a new record
Arriving in the summer of 2023 from Benfica, Gonçalo Ramos never quite solidified a regular starting position at PSG. However, his remarkable tally of 21 goals scored as a substitute set a new record in the capital club’s history. Furthermore, PSG maintained an unbeaten streak in official competitions whenever their former number 9 found the net, boasting 29 victories and 8 draws in such matches.
A heartfelt farewell to PSG and its supporters
Gonçalo Ramos amassed 45 goals and 10 assists across 131 appearances in the red and blue jersey. Following the announcement of his transfer, the now-former PSG player shared an emotional message: « Today marks the end of one of the most significant chapters of my career. Wearing the PSG jersey was a privilege and an honor I will forever cherish. Together, we crafted an unforgettable story. We secured several significant titles and various other trophies, sharing moments that will forever be etched in the memories of everyone who participated in this journey, » he stated. « I wish to express my gratitude to my teammates, the technical staff, the management, and, most importantly, the supporters. Thank you for believing in me, for supporting us through challenging times, and for celebrating every victory with us. Your unwavering support was crucial to all our successes. As I depart today, I leave a piece of my heart with this club. The PSG will always remain a home for me, and I will forever be proud to have contributed to a chapter of its history. Thank you for everything. Paris will forever hold a special place in my heart and that of my family. »
