The Lamine Yamal to PSG rumor continues to be alive and well. Recently, that buzz again emerged during this international window and on the heels of the Ligue 1 side beating Barcelona on Matchday 2 of the UEFA Champions League’s league phase.

The supposed proposal was valued at an eye-watering €250 million, which might even make Barcelona consider selling. Still, the club is expected to do everything possible to fend off any approaches.
