Monaco Demand 50 Million Euros as Akliouche Pushes for Paris Move
The ongoing transfer negotiations between AS Monaco and Paris Saint-Germain for playmaker Maghnes Akliouche have intensified. The Principality club publicly declared during their pre-season press conference that the French international will only be allowed to depart if their financial evaluation is met.
Monaco executives have firmly rejected a third bid submitted by PSG early this weekend, maintaining a strict 50 million euro valuation excluding bonuses. Despite the latest rejection, inside sources indicate that active dialogues continue between both Ligue 1 clubs as their valuation gap gradually narrows.

PSG manager Luis Enrique and sporting director Luis Campos have prioritized the versatile midfielder due to his immense technical ceiling and clinical finishing. With Akliouche entering the final two years of his current contract, Monaco risk losing leverage if they fail to secure an extension this summer.
The midfielder, who featured briefly under Didier Deschamps at the World Cup, has expressed a clear desire to join the capital club. While Akliouche remains confident he can adapt to Luis Enrique's tactical setup, PSG refuse to overpay, confident in their broader recruitment strategy.
