Reintegrated Kylian Mbappe has seen the French champions majorly retool around him
When assessing this summer's best transfer window performances, Paris Saint-Germain are right up there after an impressive summer overhaul which pretty much rebuilt a bloated squad. Lionel Messi, Neymar and Sergio Ramos are gone which paved the way for sporting advisor Luis Campos to make the wholesale changes that had been expected upon his arrival in the summer of 2022.
Randal Kolo Muani, Ousmane Dembele, Lucas Hernandez, Goncalo Ramos and Manuel Ugarte are some of the most notable Parc des Princes arrivals this offseason. However, the reintegrated Kylian Mbappe still being present in the capital and scoring as frequently as ever has contributed significantly to an encouraging start to Ligue 1 life under new head coach Luis Enrique.
PSG are not done in the transfer market yet with further business expected before the Qatari transfer window closes with Marco Verratti and Julian Draxler the next to be moving on. All of this means that the French champions look formidable on paper once again and are also starting to show positive signs on the pitch too with Championnat wins over RC Lens and Olympique Lyonnais.
