Paris Saint-Germain wants to sign one of the Barça 'jewels', with the main asset being to seduce him financially. As? Offering to multiply by up to 20 the emoluments that he currently receives at the culé club
Is Paris Saint-Germain showing interest in a player from FC Barcelona? That seems to be an ongoing story. Recently, rumors have surfaced that the Parisians have shown interest in Lamine Yamal, Pablo Gavi, Ronald Araújo, and Frenkie de Jong, so it's not surprising that the French are looking to secure the services of one of the talented players from the Blaugrana team, using their significant economic power to try to attract the 'cracks' from Culés.
Now, another name has emerged on PSG's wish list: Fermín López. As reported by 'El Nacional.cat,' the Parc des Princes is eager to acquire the talented midfielder from Huelva, especially valuing his excellent 23/24 season with the Catalan side (11 goals and one assist in 43 matches) and, particularly, his recent performance with the Spanish national team at the Olympic Games, held precisely in Paris, where the '16' proved to be a ruthless goal scorer, scoring six goals in six matches.
The extravagant salary with which PSG would want to persuade Fermín López
Additionally, according to the cited source, it is suggested that the potential signing has the backing of Luis Enrique. From PSG, led by Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, they plan to offer Fermín an exorbitant salary to persuade him to join the current Ligue 1 champions. This proposal would be twenty-five times higher than the earnings he currently receives as a Barcelona player.
Under this premise, Fermín López, who currently earns around €250,000 per year, would receive approximately €5 million annually, representing a significant increase in his remuneration. Furthermore, if his union with the Parisian squad materializes, it would place him among the top ten highest earners at the French club, alongside players like Fabián Ruiz and the new midfield reinforcement, João Neves, who according to 'Capology' metrics fall into the 5-million net annual range.
Now, it remains to be seen the actual scope of this alleged offer. It is essential to remember that the Barcelona team, after Fermín's outstanding season, is looking to renew his contract to protect him with a €1 billion release clause and a necessary salary adjustment, the amounts of which have not yet been disclosed, but undoubtedly would be a recognition for a player who has shown unwavering loyalty.
