In addition to Luka Vuskovic, a promising central defender from Hajduk Split, PSG is interested in two young Benfica players at the end of their contract: Cher Ndour and Diego Moreira.

Renowned as a talent scout, Luis Campos has targeted several promising young players to strengthen the PSG ranks in the coming months.

After signing Portuguese left-back Serif Nhaga (17, ex-Porto) last winter, the Portuguese manager is now eyeing Luka Vuskovic (16), a promising Croatian central defender from Hajduk Split who is also being courted by Manchester City.

But that's not all. On Wednesday, the Italian website CalcioMercato. com announced that PSG was on the verge of completing the summer signing of Cher Ndour, a talented 18-year-old Italian-Senegalese midfielder who played for Atalanta Bergamo when he was younger and has been playing for Benfica Lisbon for the last two and a half years.

The "new Pogba" at PSG?

Presented in Italy as the "new Pogba", Ndour won the Youth League with the Lisbon club last season and has just made his debut with the Benfica first team, coming on at the very end of the match against Vitoria Guimaraes last weekend.

According to the Portuguese press, Benfica wants to extend his contract, but PSG would like to get him for free this summer. The Parisian interest has been confirmed by Fabrizio Romano, as well as by the specialized site CulturePSG. According to this "very serious site", PSG is also interested in another young Benfica player at the end of his contract: Diego Moreira (18).

Born in Belgium but now playing for Portugal in youth, Diego Moreira is an attacking player on the side. His name had already been associated with PSG a few months ago by the Portuguese press and CulturePSG confirms that Luis Campos is working concretely on his arrival, even if Paris "must clarify several other files before validating any decision in this one".
