The 2025-2026 season concluded in spectacular fashion for Paris Saint-Germain, as the club secured back-to-back Champions League titles with a dramatic victory over Arsenal in the final (1-1, 4-3 on penalties). Now, attention turns to the summer transfer window, where PSG aims to reinforce its squad for the next campaign.
The club’s leadership is already evaluating strategic additions to maintain its dominance in European football. While the team celebrates its latest triumph, discussions behind the scenes are underway to strengthen key positions. Among the targets under consideration is Aleksey Batrakov, a dynamic 20-year-old midfielder from Lokomotiv Moscow.
Batrakov’s imminent move to Paris confirmed
Reports indicate that Batrakov is on the verge of joining PSG this summer. His agent, Dmitry Cheltsov, recently addressed the situation in a Russian television interview, stating that the transfer is all but finalized. «It’s high time to confirm that, at 95%, Batrakov will be joining Paris Saint-Germain. The clubs have already held over ten telephone exchanges, and Luis Campos is scheduled to travel to Moscow this week to finalize the deal. Only a major unforeseen event could derail this agreement. The transfer fee is set at €25 million, with an estimated annual salary of €5 to €6 million.»
During the 2025-2026 season, Batrakov showcased his offensive prowess, scoring 17 goals and providing 13 assists across 36 appearances for Lokomotiv Moscow, demonstrating the kind of creativity and impact that aligns with PSG’s recruitment strategy.
