According to the French press, MU is ready to recruit PSG defender Nordi Mukiele in January 2024, thereby upgrading the quality of defense. Last summer, PSG spent 16 million euros to buy Nordi Mukiele from RB Leipzig. According to statistics, Mukiele has made 146 appearances for Leipzig in all competitions, helping them reach the semi-finals of the 2020 Champions League and win the German National Cup.
With impressive performances in Germany, Mukiele has a lot of expectations for the French team. However, this player did not play well, and is currently not a regular starter under coach Luis Enrique.
This season, Mukiele has only been able to play once since the beginning of the season because Achraf Hakimi is the one who is sure to start at right back at PSG, and it is also difficult for him to compete for the starting position in the center of defense. Although he still has a contract with PSG until 2027, it is likely that the former RB Leipzig defender will leave the club next January.
According to the French press, MU is ready to recruit Mukiele in January, thereby upgrading the quality of the defense. Previously, Mukiele was contacted by MU last year, but the French player chose to join PSG after parting ways with RB Leipzig. Coach Erik ten Hag needs to add personnel to the MU defense. Mukiele’s versatility is highly appreciated by him, as he can play right-back and center-back. MU has the ability to find a loan agreement for Mukiele in the 2024 Winter market. They are also willing to include a buyout clause if he plays well.
The 25-year-old player is also said to accept leaving the Parc des Princes to play regularly, hoping to attend the Euro 2024 finals next summer with the French team.
