The Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has confirmed its first summer transfer with the departure of Gonçalo Ramos, who has signed with AC Milan. The move leaves a significant gap in PSG’s attacking lineup, prompting the club to actively pursue a replacement. According to insider reports, the club is considering Folarin Balogun as a potential candidate to fill the void.

In an official statement, PSG expressed gratitude for Ramos’ contributions, highlighting his role in securing 12 trophies, including back-to-back UEFA Champions League titles during his three-season stint. The Portuguese striker has now committed to AC Milan until 2031, setting the stage for PSG’s urgent search for a new forward.
Folarin Balogun emerges as PSG’s prime target
Rumors suggest that Luis Campos and his technical team are closely monitoring Folarin Balogun, the prolific striker who topped AS Monaco’s scoring charts last season with 19 goals in 43 appearances. The 24-year-old American international has already made his mark in Ligue 1, having played for Reims before his standout spell at Monaco. His adaptability and goal-scoring prowess make him an ideal fit for PSG’s attacking strategy.
AS Monaco’s financial pressures open the door for Balogun’s exit
While PSG has yet to initiate formal negotiations, AS Monaco may be inclined to part ways with Balogun due to financial constraints. The club has already placed three players on the transfer market, including Balogun, Lamine Camara, and Maghnes Akliouche—all of whom have drawn interest from PSG. However, Balogun’s services are also coveted by Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, adding to the competitive bidding for his signature.
