€10 million release clause makes Digne a tempting PSG target
Paris Saint‑Germain are drawn to 32‑year‑old left‑back Lucas Digne after his €10 million release clause and a contract that runs until 2028. The French capital club sees the clause as a cost‑effective way to fill a gap in their left‑back department.
Sport Paris Saint‑Germain have formally expressed interest and negotiations have already begun. The pursuit signals a strategic shift toward acquiring experienced talent without overspending.
Digne remains under contract with the Villans until 2028, giving PSG a long‑term option should the move materialise. His €10 million release clause makes the potential transfer financially attractive for the Ligue 1 champions.
The Frenchman would compete directly with 24‑year‑old Nuno Mendes for the left‑back role. He will also challenge 24‑year‑old Ian Maatsen for a place in the 2025‑26 campaign.
Meaux‑born Digne previously logged 44 appearances for Paris Saint‑Germain between 2013 and 2016. Those early years laid the foundation for his later development.
During a four‑year spell at Aston Villa, he became a key figure under Unai Emery and helped the club win the Europa League last season. Across all competitions he amassed 44 appearances and contributed seven assists.
The report comes from GFFN, with Léo Aschi providing the details. Continued talks will determine whether the €10 million clause translates into a concrete move before the transfer window closes.
