Paris Saint-Germain await Manchester City punishment to move for Rayan

Paris Saint-Germain are monitoring Manchester City's situation regarding the anticipated punishment in their financial case, preparing to move for Rayan Cherki, with Liverpool also interested in the player.

TEAMtalk has reported that the French club is closely monitoring Sharqi and will not hesitate to move for him if he becomes available for a suitable fee, whether in January or next summer.

Rayan has joined Manchester City from Olympique Lyon two seasons ago, contributing 25 goal involvements in his first season, before registering 6 contributions in his first 8 matches this season, while his contract runs until 2030.

These developments come after an independent committee found Manchester City guilty of breaching the financial rules of the Premier League over nine seasons between 2009 and 2018, without specifying the penalty so far, as the club continues to deny the violations and submit an appeal.

Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Chelsea are monitoring the situation regarding Eastern, while sources have ruled out Bayern Munich as a serious contender for the deal.

Sharqi remains a player at Manchester City, and no official agreement has been reached. The impending punishment will determine whether clubs' interest will turn into actual moves to sign the player.
