PSG Mercato sees Paris chase Brunner as Kvaratskhelia injury looms

The PSG Mercato agenda now centres on replacing the injured Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, with Paris eyeing both the Moroccan forward Abde and the 20‑year‑old Ligue 1 sensation Paris Brunner, while the club prepares its next transfer manoeuvres amid a serious injury crisis.

Khvicha KVARATSKHELIA’s grave injury, often referenced as Kvicha Kvaratskhelia, has left the Paris side with a depleted attacking line. Luis Campos and his staff are therefore assessing several options to reinforce the forward sector.

Brunner emerges as top Ligue 1 target

The player under scrutiny is Paris Brunner, the new Ligue 1 sensation who has begun his season with AS Monaco in impressive fashion. The 20‑year‑old has netted seven goals in eight matches across all competitions, according to statistics reported by multiple media outlets.

Ekrem Konur told reporters that the German attacker is on PSG’s radar, and the report cites Konur’s statement as evidence of PSG’s serious interest.

Monaco has set a minimum price of €30 million for BRUNNER and does not necessarily intend to part with him during the winter transfer window, preferring to retain the talent for the remainder of the campaign. The principality also has a clear sporting interest in keeping the striker, as a January exit could weaken its attack while defending championship ambitions.

Other options and rival interest complicate deal

Paris has also kept the Moroccan forward Abde on its shortlist, demonstrating the club’s desire to retain several alternatives while evaluating the best way to fill the void left by Kvaratskhelia.

Former club Borussia Dortmund is reported to be monitoring Brunner as well, with the German side possessing a mechanism to match any offer Monaco receives, potentially complicating the PARIS pursuit.

The PARIS hierarchy must decide whether Brunner represents an immediate remedy or a multi‑season investment, but no formal bid has been confirmed and Monaco’s willingness to negotiate in January remains doubtful, especially if Kvara’s recovery is prolonged.
