  • Barcelona were keeping tabs on Paris Saint-Germain’s Stanley Nsoki before the youngster signed his first professional contract last week, according to reports.

    N’Soki, 19, is one of the latest talents to come out of the Ligue 1 champions’ productive academy. The left-back’s startling progress has seen new head coach Thomas Tuchel hand him three appearances in the early rounds of 2018/19’s top flight.

    Mundo Deportivo stated that PSG gained proof in recent weeks that Barca scouts had been watching the player, in view to filling their problem position as back-up to Jordi Alba.

    This led to the “Se queda” tweet to announce his new deal until 2021. This Spanish phrase – meaning “he’s staying” – was famously used by Gerard Pique about Neymar, prior to his defection to PSG from Barca in August 2017.
