PSG secure Digne for €6m to bolster left‑back depth

In the PSG medical suite this afternoon, French full‑back Lucas Digne completed his examination, sealing a €6 million return to Paris Saint‑Germain. The veteran’s move, his second summer signing, marks a comeback to the French capital ten years after his earlier Ligue 1 spell.

Paris Saint‑Germain activated a release clause in Digne’s contract with Aston Villa, reducing the fee from €10 million to €6 million to secure the France international. The clause activation confirms the club’s willingness to invest in experienced defensive options.

Luis Enrique has identified Digne as a long‑term backup for Nuno Mendes, addressing a clear need at left‑back. The addition aims to maintain squad strength across all competitions.

Digne will sign a three‑year contract with PSG, ticking off another positional requirement. The deal provides depth for the upcoming campaigns.

Despite a fatal error against Spain in the World Cup semi‑final last week, Digne has been a solid servant for both Villa and his country. His consistent performances reinforce his value to the French side.
