Paris Saint-Germain Transfer updates Team: (4-3-3) Sirigu; DIGNE, Thiago Silva, Alex, van der Wiel; Matuidi, Thiago Motta, Pastore; Lavezzi, Ibrahimovic, CAVANI. Players In:Marquinhos (Roma), Lucas Digne(Lille), Edinson Cavani (Napoli). Players Out: Mamadou Sakho(Liverpool), Clement Chantome(Toulouse), Diego Lugano(West Brom), Kevin Gameiro(Sevilla), Sylvain Armand(Rennes), David Beckham(retired). Comments It remains to be seen whether Edinson Cavani can click with fellow elite striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Predictably, PSG went back to Serie A to do their shopping this summer. They coughed up the 64 million euros Napoli were demanding for Edinson Cavani and got a player who,along with Falcao and Robert Lewandowski, is one of the top strikers in the world right now. Another one, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, plays for PSG, and doubts remains as to whether they can play together. On paper, however, this forward line is formidable. Paying Roma 31.4 million euros for centre-back Marquinhos a year after they signed him from Corinthians for an initial fee of just 1.5 million euros seems like folly. As with Javier Pastore, PSG have bought on the basis of potential, and the Brazilian teenager has plenty. The feeis overblown, though, but PSG have the money and they can spend it how they choose (unless, of course, Financial Fair Play has any effect at all). Bringing in Lucas Digne means they havea bright future at left-back. On the other side, however, Iremain to be convinced by Christophe Jallet and Gregoryvan der Wiel. Could they not have bought another right-back?
