Paris Saint‑Germain are already planning their next look at the winter transfer window, although the official transfer doesn't begin until January. According to information from PSG Inside Actus, the Parisian club is studying several profiles from Atlético Madrid, three players who could strengthen Luis Enrique's squad. The approach, initiated in advance, shows PSG's desire to remain competitive while targeting specific needs.
Among the names mentioned, Spanish midfielder PabloBarrios stands out. He gradually established himself at Atlético thanks to his technique, his mobility and his ability to support attacks. Barrios is able to hold onto the ball under pressure and project himself forward, qualities that match Luis Enrique's demands. However, the Madrid club sees no obligation to sell a key player to a European rival, which makes negotiations delicate.
The second profile is that of MarcPubill, a versatile defender capable of occupying the right or the axis. His tactical flexibility is an asset for the Spanish coach, who appreciates players who can adapt to different formations. PSG had already expressed interest during the last transfer window, but Atlético refused his departure at the end of the summer. Although his name remains in the Paris discussions, no concrete progress has been announced for January.
The third name is that of ÁlexBaena, a midfielder renowned for his vision of the game and his passing quality. His ability to create gaps in the final meters could provide an additional solution to the Parisian club's offensive zones. As for the other two players, the prospect of transfer would depend on Atlético's desire to cede an important element of its squad, which seems unlikely.
Despite these three avenues, PSG does not seem to want to increase operations. The preferred strategy would be a targeted transfer window, aiming to strengthen two specific sectors – a defender and a midfielder – without disrupting the balance of the team. This approach would allow Luis Enrique to concentrate his efforts on the most useful profiles for the coming season. Negotiations remain to be confirmed, and the future of the Parisian club will depend on the ability to convince Madrid leaders to let these key players leave.
