Paris Saint-Germain is making a strong push to secure Feyenoord defender Lutsharel Geertruida before Premier League clubs can swoop in. The Ligue 1 champions have identified Geertruida as one of their top targets to strengthen their defense this summer, along with Edmond Tapsoba from Bayer Leverkusen and Leny Yoro from Lille.
Geertruida, who is in the final year of his contract with Feyenoord, is seen as the most feasible option for PSG. However, interest from Premier League teams, particularly Liverpool, is causing some concern for PSG. The 23-year-old has been linked with a move to Liverpool, where he previously worked under Arne Slot at Feyenoord. Geertruida fuelled speculation of a move to Anfield by attending Liverpool’s match against West Ham in April.
Despite Liverpool’s interest, other English clubs are also eyeing Geertruida due to his impressive performances in the Eredivisie. Last season, he scored eight goals and provided five assists in 34 appearances, mainly playing as a right-back. PSG has not made a formal offer to Feyenoord yet, but reports suggest that they are working on reaching an agreement with Geertruida on personal terms.
As the transfer saga unfolds, PSG is racing against Premier League clubs to secure Geertruida’s signature. The Dutch defender’s future remains uncertain, but it seems that PSG is determined to win the race for his services. Subscribe to our social channels for the latest updates on this developing story.
