Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League final defeat to Arsenal in Berlin on Saturday has immediately shifted the focus to the summer transfer window, with several high-profile players from the Parisian squad now facing uncertain futures. Arsenal lifted the trophy with a 2-1 victory at the Olympiastadion.T2, BBC Sport
The result leaves PSG’s project under Luis Enrique in a familiar position: dominant domestically, unable to convert European pedigree into silverware. The French club have won Ligue 1 in each of the last four seasons but remain without a Champions League title despite Qatar Sports Investments’ 14-year ownership. Several players are now expected to attract Premier League interest as the summer window opens.
Ousmane Dembélé, 28, was a peripheral figure in Berlin and has one year remaining on his contract. The former Barcelona winger has been linked with moves to England in each of the last two summers. No formal approach has been reported, but multiple Premier League clubs are understood to be monitoring his availability.T2, BBC Sport
Vitinha, 25, operated as PSG’s deepest midfielder in the final but struggled to impose himself against Arsenal’s press. The Portugal international signed a contract extension through 2028 last year, which would require a significant fee. Manchester City and Liverpool have both been cited as potential destinations in French media this season, though no Tier-1 source has confirmed concrete interest.
Achraf Hakimi, 27, is contracted until 2026 but has been linked with an exit for consecutive windows. The Morocco international made an error leading to Arsenal’s second goal in Berlin. Chelsea and Arsenal have both been mentioned in connection with the right-back, with Fabrizio Romano reporting in May that PSG had yet to open extension talks.T1, Romano
Marquinhos, 31, captained PSG in the final and has been a one-club player in European football since joining from Corinthians in 2013. His contract expires in 2026. No Premier League club has been publicly linked, but the centre-back market this summer is thin, which could invite approaches.
Bradley Barcola, 23, was the brightest of PSG’s front three in Berlin but is the subject of persistent speculation about a move to England. The France international has a deal running to 2028. Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United have all been credited with interest by L’Équipe this season, though the French outlet did not characterise any of those links as advanced. Transfermarkt values Barcola at €80m, a figure that would require a Premier League-record winger fee to surpass.
PSG are expected to retain most of the squad that reached the final, but the club’s hierarchy have historically responded to European disappointment with significant market activity. The Premier League’s financial advantage, enhanced by a new domestic broadcast deal beginning next season, positions English clubs as the likeliest buyers for any player who becomes available.
No formal bids have been reported for any of the five players listed. The summer transfer window in England opens on June 16.
