Mamadou Sakho has asked to leave PSG according to reports from France today. Liverpool linked.

The market presents an opportunity after all...

Not a good one. Ask Bertus, who is a PSG fan and have been following sakho closely.

Yes, an opportunity to be foolish. This guy isnt anywhere near good enough for us and has an attitude and ego that far exceeds his qualities on the pitch. The only reason he is rated by some has to be because he probably was good in some computer games. He certainly isnt showing it in the real world.

I really think that the "Luiz" deal is gathering momentum behind the scenes .

@barcastuff: There has been decided in today's meeting that Barcelona will continue to try to sign a centre back in the summer transfer window. [ser]

I hope so, then all our defenders will attack :D

I am sure we would be after Lucio even at 35 years old if he was playing for some English club. Thats the main criteria for interest.

If a player good enough for the Barcelona first team is available isn't it obvious that top teams would be wanting to buy them? Not just Man City and PSG, but Barca, Madrid, Man U, Chelsea etc would all be trying to get them. Of course if that's not happening, then it's likely because of genuine doubt as to the quality of the player or because the player isn't available.

In the case of Barca there's the added problem that the player needs to have the right profile to play in a high line tiki-taka defense. The players you mention would all likely be 4th choice if they came here. Even David Luiz might end up with the same problems Alex Song did. Unfortunately it's not that easy to get players and get them to fit into the team successfully.


You can't compare Song with Luiz , though .

I'll gladly be foolish for a talented young player on the cheap. He was club captain by 21, and Ancelotti didn't mesh well with him.

FCB would be a perfect club to turn his attitude around. If we still had Abidal, it'd be ideal.

What talent are you talking about? a player who doesn't improve in this kind of age isn't trustable, hes not a hard worker. And his attitude won't be fixed in Barcelona, cause whoever comes its pretty clear he will be getting the most minutes in defence so without any pressure or competition he will remain the same. He wasn't captain for too much, it probably made him think that he is the best around the team and has a secure place so he doesn't need to tire for play time. He lost the captaincy immediately..

According to L'Equipe TV (french TV channel of L'Equipe Newspaper), Barcelona is interested in Sakho. People are posting that they even quoted a Catalan newspaper.



Guys, I advise you to:

Would sign him no doubt. Just 15 mill apparently, 6'2, won more headers than any other PSG player, can play LB.

</small> Paris Saint-Germain centre back Mamadou Sakho (23) is Barcelona's alternative for David Luiz and Agger. The Frenchman would cost 15M [sport]

I'd rather get Mathieu.
