Away from the field for almost ten months due to a ruptured Achilles tendon, Presnel Kimpembe – who recently returned to training – extended his contract with Paris SG by one year, i.e. until in 2026. “I am very happy to continue my story with my favorite club,” said the native of Beaumont-sur-Oise in the club press release. I thank Paris Saint-Germain, its President (Nasser Al-Khelaïfi) and its supporters for the renewed confidence. I hope to wear these colors again as soon as possible.” Furthermore, his return to competition should take a little longer than expected since he would have to undergo surgery again, this time for a “surgical correction”.
Will he stay? Appointed interim coach of Olympique Lyonnais at the end of November after the dismissal of Fabio Grosso, Pierre Sage does not know (yet?) what his future will hold. At least that’s what he suggested this Wednesday evening, after the victory against FC Nantes (1-0): “I don’t know if I will be affected by the resumption or not. I can just say that I will be at Olympique Lyonnais but I don’t know in what role,” declared the man who took charge of the Rhone training center in the off-season. However, L’Équipe revealed this Wednesday that Lyon leaders were considering extending his “mission” on the Gones bench. As a reminder, the 44-year-old technician has obtained rather remarkable results with three successes – and two defeats – in five Ligue 1 matches. With these performances, the Gones – long last – have (finally) left the red zone.

At the end of his contract at the end of the season, Moses Simon (necessarily) arouses desire, particularly that of Olympique Lyonnais. But FC Nantes, satisfied with his performance (3 goals, 4 assists in Ligue 1) would like to extend him. And according to the information revealed by Foot Mercato, the attacking midfielder “has a good chance of extending the adventure” with the Canaries. As a reminder, the Nigerian joined the FCN in the summer of 2019 from UD Levante, first on loan, then as part of a permanent transfer.
Struggling at Manchester United, Donny van de Beek would be on the verge of discovering the Bundesliga. As Fabrizio Romano indicated this Thursday, the versatile midfielder should be loaned to Eintracht Frankfurt in the second part of the season, i.e. until June 2024. The operation would include a non-obligatory purchase option for a amount of around €15 million. Aged 26, the Dutchman is under contract with the Red Devils until June 2025.
