Wanted midfielder at PSG: Fabinho option in winter, de Jong in summer?

Tuchel wants some reinforcement

Liverpool has spent 45 million euros this summer to help Brazilian Fabinho (pictured) leave AS Monaco. However, the investment has not been successful so far. The defensive midfielder was 486 minutes for the Reds on the field.

This calls, according to information from "The Team", the next opponent of the Champions League on the plan. Paris Saint-Germain, who will host Liverpool on Wednesday for a potentially qualifying match for Group C, is apparently considering bidding for the 25-year-old in the winter.

Thus, the summer theme of the French master is experiencing a renaissance. Already during the transition period, the PSG had failed in its search for a man for the midfielder's seat. Coach Thomas Tuchel had recently reaffirmed his desire to strengthen his position. "We need a third-rate midfielder to play in 4-3-3 or three defenders," he said in the French newspaper.

A little more financial leeway for Parisians, who remain in the limelight because of financial fair play, could see Lassana Diarra leave for the US MLS. The 33-year-old, who barely trains at Tuchel, earns 4 million euros per season.

His flexibility – the Brazilian can also play right back – and accumulated experience in Ligue 1 times in Monaco in addition to a Fabinho commitment. The new UEFA regulations mean that the midfielder should also play in the knockout stages of the Champions League despite his three appearances in Liverpool – if the PSG reached them.

On the other hand, a premature start would likely lead to a complete overhaul and postponement of the engagement of a prominent man for the midfield this summer. In addition, the Dutchman Frenkie de Jong (21) of Ajax Amsterdam is an issue that is however courted by several big clubs.

Meanwhile, Jürgen Klopp could engage in games of reflection around Fabinho. Finally, Liverpool coach explained a few days ago: "It has always been a future. […] Of course, he will not leave us. I'm not talking about transfers, but if you want to ask me, nobody will leave. That would be totally crazy – he does not want it, it's just crazy world that thinks people, if they have not played the last five games, are open to some kind of market transfers. We are not involved. "
