PSG and RC Lens navigate high-profile youth transfer interests
Paris Saint-Germain is attempting to sign 16-year-old forward Laciné Megnan-Pavé from Montpellier HSC. While PSG has reportedly secured the player's agreement on a five-year contract and made an offer near 10 million euros, Montpellier has rejected the proposal. The club is honoring a commitment to its staff to keep the U16 French international for the current season to ensure his development.
One potential solution being discussed is a deal where PSG purchases the player and immediately loans him back to Montpellier for the season.
Separately, RC Lens is facing pressure regarding the contract of 18-year-old reserve goalkeeper Daïvy Lefranc-Yeboah. Following a standout performance where he saved two penalties in a match against Sunderland, eight different clubs—including RB Leipzig, Benfica, and Aston Villa—have reportedly begun monitoring the player. Lefranc-Yeboah is currently on a professional trainee contract that expires in 2027, prompting Lens to consider how to secure his future.
