The post-Kylian Mbappe era continues! PSG complete €50m signing of Rennes sensation Desire Doue

Ligue 1

Paris Saint-Germain

Toulouse

<p>PSG have confirmed winger Doue has signed for the Ligue 1 giants on a five-year contract. After being linked with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/bayern-munich-psg-teenager-manchester-united-chelsea/bltfedfde4eedd896e1#cs1b4ab9078b0dc4d1" target="_blank">Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Manchester United</a>, the French outfit have won the race to sign the 19-year-old.</p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="es" dir="ltr">📣 «̶&nbsp;̶A̶n̶n̶o̶n̶c̶e̶ ̶D̶o̶u̶é̶&nbsp;̶»̶ <br><br>Désiré Doué rejoint le Paris Saint-Germain ❤️💙<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WelcomeDou%C3%A9?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#WelcomeDoué</a> <a href="https://t.co/4Z68wds3Nm">pic.twitter.com/4Z68wds3Nm</a></p>— Paris Saint-Germain (@PSG_inside) <a href="https://twitter.com/PSG_inside/status/1824732903244239196?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 17, 2024</a></blockquote>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>PSG have entered a new era, without their talismanic, record-scorer Mbappe, who <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/real-madrid-announce-signing-superstar-kylian-mbappe-from-psg/blt023bce8229a88449" target="_blank">left for Real Madrid earlier this summer</a>. Finding a way to replace his goals and still be a force in France and Europe is a big task. While it is not fair to put all of that pressure on Doue, he and the club will hope he can hit the ground running for them this season after his <a href="https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1824734949288644706" target="_blank">big-money signing</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>He told the <a href="https://en.psg.fr/teams/first-team/content/desire-doue-is-a-parisian-psg-paris-saint-germain-news-mercato-2425-2024-2025" target="_blank">club's website</a>: “I'm delighted to be joining Paris Saint-Germain. I'm really excited, and also happy and proud. It's a dream come true. I can't wait to discover the Parc des Princes in a PSG jersey and to play in front of these fans."</p>

WHAT DESIRE DOUE SAID

<p>Doue, who scored seven goals and bagged six assists in 57 appearances for Rennes in Ligue 1, helped <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/spain-olympic-champions-la-roja-france-gold-5-3-win-fermin-lopez-alex-baena-spoil-party-thierry-henry/blta53d69fc4befeafe#cs48cdcb253897f117" target="_blank">France win a silver medal at the Olympics</a> and after a break, he will link up with his new PSG team-mates in the coming weeks.</p>
