Mathis Jangeal signs a five-year deal with the Minho-based club. The 18-year-old attacking midfielder developed his entire career at the French giant and, in the recently concluded season, featured in one French league match and one Coupe de France game.

Famalicão officially announced the signing of Mathis Jangeal this Saturday afternoon.

The 18-year-old French attacking midfielder arrives from PSG and has penned a five-year deal with the Minho-based club.

Having come through the ranks at the Parisian giants, Mathis Jangeal impressed last season with the U19s (19 games, 10 goals, and six assists) and the U21s (three appearances and one assist) of the French capital's club. He also had the opportunity to feature for the senior team, making one appearance in Ligue 1 and another in the Coupe de France.

Having been utilized by Luis Enrique in PSG's top flight – he came on as a substitute in the 2-0 victory against Auxerre on matchday 6 – Mathis Jangeal added a league title to his resume.

The next chapter in Jangeal's career is in Portugal with Famalicão, and upon his arrival in Vila Nova, the French prospect expressed his delight at joining a club that heavily invests in youth development.

“I've watched several Portuguese league games and always dreamed of playing here. As soon as I learned of Famalicão's interest, I was drawn to the idea of representing a club that has achieved fantastic national and international projection. I know the team has just made history by setting several records. It's a very family-oriented club that has undergone significant evolution over the past eight years. The club, the infrastructure, and the fans make me deeply eager to start playing,” he stated in comments released by Famalicão's official media outlets.

The creative midfielder also revealed that he had spoken with one of PSG's Portuguese international stars. “I spoke with Nuno Mendes, and he told me that the Portuguese league is an ideal league for young players who enjoy and take pleasure in having the ball,” he emphasized, before adding that he will give “his best for the club” and that he is a player who “combines a high competitive level with the ability to hold the ball and assist teammates.”
