Belgium international defender Thomas Meunier has joined French giants Paris Saint Germain. The 24-year-old former Club Brugge man who signed a four-year deal with Les Parisiens, is now the third signing for the French giants after Hatem Ben Arfa and Grezegorz Krychowiak ahead of the new season.
The Red Devils man was part of the team that was bundled out of the Euro 2016 competition in France thanks to Wales’ 3-1 victory in the quarter-finals on Friday. Speaking moments after he was unveiled by the club, the ex-Standard Liege man said:
“I am very honored to have been chosen by Paris Saint-Germain to come and bolster a squad that already features a number of great players, I signed for Paris because I have a huge desire to keep improving, experience at the highest level and win titles. I can’t wait to play in the fantastic Parc des Princes stadium.”
