The Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) has officially announced its first major summer transfer, marking a significant shift in the club’s strategy. Gonçalo Ramos, the Portuguese striker who has spent the past three seasons in the French capital, is set to join AC Milan on a long-term contract until 2031.
This transfer comes as PSG seeks to reshape its squad under new manager Luis Enrique, who aims to build a team capable of reclaiming European dominance. The club’s official statement highlighted Ramos’s achievements during his time in Paris, noting that he contributed to 12 trophies, including two consecutive Champions League titles.
Gonçalo Ramos seals AC Milan move with record-breaking deal
The announcement from PSG confirmed that Ramos would be departing the French giants, with AC Milan immediately following up by revealing the details of his contract. The Italian club stated that the Portuguese forward had signed a deal running until June 30, 2031, solidifying his long-term future in Serie A.
The financial terms of the transfer remain undisclosed, though industry insiders suggest the deal could reach up to €80 million, including potential bonuses. This makes it one of the most lucrative sales in PSG’s history and the largest transfer ever completed by AC Milan. While not surpassing the €90 million received for Neymar in 2023, Ramos’s exit ranks as PSG’s second-highest sale, outpacing previous transfers like Manuel Ugarte and Xavi Simons, both sold for €50 million to Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur respectively.
PSG’s summer transfer window kicks off with ambitious plans
The departure of Gonçalo Ramos signals the beginning of an active summer for PSG, as the club looks to rejuvenate its squad. With Luis Enrique at the helm, the focus is on assembling a competitive team that can compete at the highest level in both domestic and European competitions. The summer transfer window is now officially open, and PSG’s first major move has set the tone for the months ahead.
