Barcelona Plots Revenge on PSG, Targeting Young Talent After Fernandez Transfer
The talent war between Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona is escalating. Earlier this year, PSG signed Dro Fernandez, paying a mere eight million euros for the Catalan youth product – two million more than his release clause. This transfer was a bitter pill for Joan Laporta and everyone at Camp Nou. Now, Barcelona is reportedly planning to retaliate by poaching one of PSG's promising talents, David Boly, according to "Sport." The 17-year-old right wing-back has already made his senior debut for the Parisian club in a French Cup match. His current contract expires in a year, at which point he will be 18 and could leave as a free agent.
According to "Le Parisien," the French club's management is deeply frustrated that Boly has not accepted their contract extension offers. PSG officials at Parc des Princes are well aware that Barcelona is closely monitoring the player and are concerned about losing him for free, especially given the high hopes they have for his future.
Boly's current contract is not yet professional, as he is still a minor. This means Barcelona could attempt to sign him this summer, though they would owe a compensation fee. However, PSG will continue its efforts to convince him to re-sign, securing his future with the club. If an agreement isn't reached, Boly could sign a pre-contract with Barcelona in January, once he turns 18, and then move to Camp Nou as a free agent the following summer.
