Renato Sanches, the Portuguese midfielder, is poised to make a return to Paris Saint-Germain following his loan spell at AS Roma. The Italian club has decided not to activate the €15 million buy option to retain Sanches permanently. This decision means that Sanches will be back on the market, with PSG looking to explore potential solutions for the player.
AS Roma has opted against making the loan move a permanent transfer, which will see Sanches rejoin his parent club PSG at the conclusion of this season. The move comes despite earlier discussions and considerations about his future at Roma.
In related developments, earlier this year, AS Roma had reportedly urged Renato Sanches to seek a new club, indicating that his future at the Italian club was uncertain. Additionally, José Mourinho, Roma’s manager, had dismissed rumours in December that Sanches would leave the club in the January transfer window, which added to the uncertainty surrounding the player’s career trajectory.
As Sanches prepares to return to PSG, the club will assess the best course of action for his professional future, considering potential transfers or other strategic options.
