PSG eye huge Gunners transfer raid amid move for Arsenal icon Thierry Henry and Julian Nagelsmann
Arsenal might have to prepare for potential interest from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) this summer, as numerous players have been linked with a transfer to the French club.
Recent reports suggest that the possibility of PSG pursuing Thierry Henry, a legendary figure at Arsenal, has gained momentum and he could join the Ligue 1 champions as an assistant coach in the upcoming weeks.
According to FootMercato, Henry is being considered as an option to work alongside Julian Nagelsmann, who is a strong candidate to become PSG’s coach for the next season. Currently, the team is still managed by Christophe Galtier.
However, following the departures of Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos, there is a feeling that a new era is approaching, and it is expected that the manager will step down from his position.
If Thierry Henry were to join PSG as an assistant coach, it would mark a return to coaching for him after a period of primarily working as a pundit.
He had previously been involved in coaching during his time with the Belgium national team, where he worked alongside Roberto Martinez. However, Henry’s departure from the national team coincided with Martinez’s exit as well.
Thierry Henry’s possible move to PSG might result in the French club intensifying their interest in players from his former club, Arsenal. Earlier reports indicated that PSG was eyeing Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard, whose contract is nearing its end, but as of now, there is no indication of an imminent departure.
However, it appears that PSG’s interest extends beyond Odegaard. According to GOAL, there is also interest in Arsenal’s defender Gabriel Magalhaes as the summer transfer window approaches.
The Brazilian player has made a strong impression throughout the season, securing a regular spot in the team and even earning himself a new contract.
According to the report, Gabriel Magalhaes has no intention of leaving Arsenal or pushing for a transfer this summer, indicating that an exit is unlikely. Arsenal will likely be relieved by this news, as they hope to avoid any potential reunion with Thierry Henry in the transfer market.
However, if both teams were to qualify for the Champions League and were drawn against each other, it could set the stage for a memorable showdown between Henry and his former club.
