Barcelona interested in PSG defender Sakho

Asked about the rumours linking Paris Saint-Germain central defender and French youth international Mamadou Sakho (19) with a move to several European top clubs, the player's agent Tim Hager has said in an interview with British sports site Sport that Barcelona has also shown interest:

"He will be moving clubs this summer. Arsenal are interested, but the club are too cheap at the moment. I think a transfer will happen soon. He wants to play football in England and Arsenal are a good club but Manchester United is a better club. Arsenal want him, but Manchester United not yet.

Barcelona in Spain, and Bayern Munich in the German league are also interested. They are all the teams at the moment that are interested in the player. But the most interested club is Arsenal, they want him the most. Bayern Munich is a top European club, so I think it will be Bayern or Arsenal."

Bayern should buy him and sell us Lahm.

I'm not sure, but isn't he a centre back, not a left back?

i would like to take him .as you now arsenal coach dont knew very well talent and he sure he is a talent and is young and looks that he can play with had too. i would like to bye him

hawk_barca_4_life said...

dont know much abt him though...but he was a striker earlier shifted position later is good ...has pace... 6feet 2 inch tall

after all arsenal r also after him good prospect we shd get him will not cost much

Scano814 said...

aron, yeah he's an awesome center back...i'm sure he could play LB but he is def a CB...

Adds versatility for us if her can double as a CB/LC and henrique can take care of CB/RB...this could be the purchase we need..

Because of his age this pretty much says good bye to Caceres...also stiffles Muniesa a bit...

We should go for a more experienced CB, but this guy is an excellent prospect he has even captained his side a few times...before age 20!!!

i'm undecided on this but I think he definitely a viable option for us...

skanjos said...

nah he is better as cb and we have young talent in our squad muniesa and pique,if his natural position is left back which i doupt i would welcome him.but even the rumor says that barcelona is a little interested ,meaning we have scouted him,nothing to see here,i think we will sign deportivo's left back felipe

HouseMD said...

@Tengku, you didn't have to mention his color of the skin. We can see that he's black. And his shirt is blue. Try to avoid this stupid comments, please.

For everyone else, Sakho is defending prodigy and I watched him playing several times. He's playing LB and if necessary CB. PSG will ask reasonable price, I'm sure.

Martin Engelin said...

He seems to go too Arsenal, but hope he comes here to Barca. He can play both CB and LB. He would be the perfect man for the LB position. With Dani Alves on the RB we need a defensive LB, and thats Sakho. Also he is only 19 y.o.

I doubt Sakho will ever play for Barca, but I really hope that Barca sees his big potencial. I have no idea how expensive this guy would be, but i don't think it's that much.

Mast said...

I don't think Barça is really interested in him, with henriqué, botía and muniesa we have enough future at the back.
The agent is just using us to prove he's a good player and to get a good price I think..

hieifcb said...

very great player, perhaps a future improved Abidal.
For the left side, he'll be very great since we dnt have youngsters as LB and he can also play as CB.

What about the young Traore? He can play like LW, LB.

Jnice said...

The shirt is blue...

Pete said...

Class player, captained he u17 side. He is incredibly highly rated in the French press. I would love to see us get him but I doubt it with how much Wenger loves young french players.

Pete said...

And the shirt is navy blue, white and red... PSGs colors
