Who has made the best deals?
It's been a month since the transfer market opened and, by a quirk of the calendar, it happens that Ligue 1 will resume in a month. It's an opportunity to look at the French teams that have made the best transfers so far.
Very aggressive at the start of the transfer window, AS Monaco decided to attract big names with Paul Pogba (free), Ansu Fati (Barcelona) and Éric Dier (Bayern Munich). If this transfer window is exciting for now, it is still risky.
The fragile physical condition of Paul Pogba and Ansu Fati are legitimate sources of doubt, but if things work out, then the club from the Rock will have one of the most beautiful squads in Ligue 1.
With the departures of Djordje Petrovic, Andrey Santos, Mamadou Sarr and captain Habib Diarra, Strasbourg has let many key players go. But the Strasbourg team did not waste time trying to fill these gaps.
True to its project, the Alsatian club has bet on youth with the signings of Mathis Amougou (Chelsea), Soumaïla Coulibaly (Dortmund) and Pape Demba Diop (Zulte Waregem). Strasbourg also made a big move by exercising the purchase option for Valentin Barco (Brighton) after his very successful season at La Meinau.
As since the arrival of Pablo Longoria, Olympique de Marseille was quick to strengthen its squad once summer arrived. The Phocians have prioritized defense, their weak area last season.
To do this, the Olympians attracted one of the best defenders in the championship in the person of Facundo Medina (Lens), in addition to English promise CJ Egan-Riley (Burnley). In addition, OM made a nice move with Angel Gomes, who was free after the end of his contract with Lille.
For its promotion to Ligue 1, Paris FC has ambitions and is not hiding it. The Parisians have notably managed to attract the very reliable and coveted Moses Simon (Nantes).
Paris FC also completed the signing of Nhoa Sangui, promising full-back from Stade de Reims. In addition, according to various sources, the promoted team would be close to finalizing the signings of Benjamin André (Lille) and Otavio (Porto).
If these transfers were to materialize, PFC will undoubtedly aim higher than the mid-table of Ligue 1.
