PSG’s Skriniar Sidelined: Juventus and Napoli Eye Transfer Opportunity

PSG’s Skriniar Sidelined: Juventus and Napoli Eye Transfer Opportunity

Milan Skriniar’s situation at Paris Saint-Germain has become increasingly complicated. The former Inter defender has been left out of the squad for the crucial match against Lyon, along with Randal Kolo Muani and Presnel Kimpembe. This decision by coach Luis Enrique is not due to physical or disciplinary issues, but rather a tactical choice.

Skriniar, who was close to a move to Saudi Arabia last summer, appears to be out of Luis Enrique’s plans. This season, he has played only 380 minutes in 5 appearances, all in Ligue 1, and has been benched for all six Champions League matches. His future in Paris looks increasingly uncertain.

Juventus, in need of defensive reinforcements due to injuries, has shown interest in Skriniar. Sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli has not ruled out the possibility of acquiring the Slovak defender, who is familiar with Serie A.

Napoli is also considering a move for Skriniar in January. Sporting director Giovanni Manna is monitoring the situation, along with other options, to potentially provide a new defender for Antonio Conte. The club is looking for a cost-effective solution, and Skriniar could fit the bill if PSG agrees to a loan deal and contributes to his substantial wages.

Meanwhile, Kolo Muani is also experiencing difficulties at PSG, with limited playing time and only two goals this season. There are rumors of a potential winter transfer, with Premier League clubs showing interest. A loan with an option to buy could be a suitable arrangement for all parties involved.
