As the World Cup unfolds, with Manu Koné representing France, transfer rumours are heating up. While some players have already secured their next destinations—Ibrahima Konaté, for instance, moved from Liverpool to Real Madrid—Koné is also drawing strong interest. A switch to Paris Saint-Germain? That appears to be his preference.
Manu Koné pushed towards the exit at Roma for financial reasons
A starter at Roma, the Italian club appears compelled to offload players before the 30 June financial deadline. Manu Koné is reportedly on the list of players the club is willing to sell. Several destinations have been mentioned, including Atlético Madrid in Spain, but the French international is not keen on a move to the rojiblancos.
Manu Koné wants PSG as priority, a transfer that could cost €50M
If Manu Koné leaves Rome, his preferred option would be to return to Ligue 1, where he previously played for Toulouse FC, or to test himself in the Premier League. However, his ideal summer transfer—before the window closes on 1 September—would be to Paris Saint-Germain. The operation is estimated to cost between €45M and €50M. Will PSG seize this opportunity or launch an offensive?
