PSG star wants to leave after the final

PSG centre-back Lucas Beraldo has expressed his desire to join a new team in this summer transfer window.

PSG suffered a crushing defeat to Chelsea in the Club World Cup final. Early morning on July 14, PSG lost to Chelsea 0-3 in the match to decide the Club World Cup title.

L'Equipe says PSG are willing to listen to offers for Beraldo, but only if they can find a suitable replacement in the transfer market. The French club will not accept any offers under €30 million.

Beraldo made 25 appearances in Ligue 1 last season, and was only a reserve option at the Parc des Princes, with Marquinhos and Willian Pacho the first choice for coach Luis Enrique.

In the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final, Beraldo started alongside Marquinhos when Pacho was suspended, but PSG lost 0-3 to Chelsea. This unconvincing performance made Beraldo's future at PSG even more uncertain.

According to statistics from Statsdufoot , PSG lost 3 of the last 5 matches that Beraldo played in. Notably, all three of the team's most recent defeats had something in common: Beraldo started in the center of defense.

Beraldo joined the Parisian capital team from Sao Paulo in January 2024. At the age of 21, the central defender once considered PSG an ideal place to develop his career.

However, after a period of unsatisfactory performance, Beraldo wanted to leave to play more, thereby having the opportunity to compete for a place in the Brazilian team at the 2026 World Cup.

PSG are currently actively looking for defensive reinforcements for next season. Bournemouth centre-back Illia Zabarnyi has been identified as a top target, but negotiations with the Premier League side have been difficult due to the large gap in transfer fees.

If they fail in the Zabarnyi deal, PSG could turn to Lazio defender Mario Gila.
