Paris Saint-Germain defender Presnel Kimpembe (29) is reportedly on the verge of joining Qatar Sports Club. This potential move follows his notable exclusion from PSG`s UEFA Champions League squad, a clear indicator of his diminishing role within the Parisian club.
PSG is actively looking to offload Kimpembe, whose career has been significantly hampered by a severe Achilles injury sustained two and a half years ago. This setback led to an extended period on the sidelines, keeping him out of action for nearly two full years.
Since his return to the pitch, Kimpembe has struggled to regain a consistent place in the Parisian starting lineup. Last season, he accumulated a mere 76 minutes across five appearances, and his progress was frequently interrupted by various minor injuries, preventing him from maintaining optimal fitness.
While the French international previously rejected an approach from AC Milan during a past transfer window, Qatar has now emerged as a viable and attractive destination. This potential transfer is being actively facilitated by PSG`s deep connections through its Qatari ownership, streamlining the negotiation process.
Discussions with Qatar Sports Club are reportedly in their final stages, and an agreement is widely anticipated to be reached before the Qatari transfer window officially closes on September 16.
