Just when things seemed to complicate for Real Madrid, PSG could come and rescue the Spanish side from their transfer woes.
According to a report by Le Parisien, the French giants will undergo a revolution this summer, with president Nasser Al-Khelaifi determined to flip the script and win the team's first UEFA Champions League. With that in mind, coach Thomas Tuchel has approved the pursuit of three Real Madrid players: Toni Kroos, Gareth Bale and Isco.
The French newspaper states that all three players would be included in a potential transfer, which would see Les Parisiens paying over $235M. The report states that PSG rates Kroos at $89M, Bale at $78M and Isco at $68M, and with Los Blancos' need to sell at least one of these players, this deal could be a blessing in disguise for both sides.
Toni Kroos and Isco have been linked with summer transfer moves ever since Santiago Solari's days at the Bernabeu, but Zinedine Zidane seems to keep them in his squad list for the 2019-20 season. Meanwhile, Gareth Bale's future seems to be further away from the Bernabeu, especially after being left out of the team's most recent two games.
In order to fund these transfers, president Nasser Al-Khelaifi would transfer Edinson Cavani and Julian Draxler away from Parc Des Princes. Neymar and Kylian Mbappé would keep playing for the French club, since they are the two foundations in which PSG is basing their UEFA Champions League hopes on.
The decision to offload Bale has also been the subject of an article by The Sun. In that report, the English tabloid suggests that Real Madrid are considering a loan deal to see Bale away from the Bernabeu, with Tottenham Hotspur being the player's destination. Los Blancos would be willing to loan Bale for just $13M, and if that was not enough of a bargain, the Spanish side would also pay half of the player's wage to facilitate his exit.
Be that as it may, things seem to be speeding up in terms of all teams trying to boost their squads for the 2019-20 season. Only time will tell if PSG's efforts to lure this trio away from the Bernabeu work.
