PSG academy David Boly, 17, draws interest from several clubs, but he wants to stay at PSG.
Paris Saint-Germain is surrounded by young, promising players and, incredibly, many of them regularly come from its academy, as is the case with David Boly.
The Parisian club is known for its emerging stars; among them, we can highlight three recent players, including Warren Zaire-Emery, who made the jump to the first team around 2022 and is now a regular in coach Luis Enrique's starting eleven.
Ibrahim Mbaye also debuted at 16 with the first team, making him one of the youngest players to score and debut for PSG.
And we cannot forget Senny Mayulu, the 20-year-old who debuted in 2024 with the first team and, by the way, scored in the 2025 Champions League final, and has now also played consistently with the team, scoring two goals in the last two matches.

Boly appears to be following the same path as these young players: the right back who currently plays for Paris Saint-Germain U19 and whose talent did not go unnoticed by the board last year.
Currently, the Frenchman has scored a goal in the UEFA Youth League and has already played with Luis Enrique's squad on two occasions, the most recent being in the win against Le Havre (1-5).
The 17-year-old stands out for his physique, though he says he stands out not only for that but also for his technique and defensive ability to read opponents.
David is also inspired by PSG player Achraf Hakimi. In interviews, the young man has said his biggest inspiration is the Moroccan for his defensive ability and his strong running. For his part, the right-back has advised Boly not to put too much pressure on himself.
Logically, many teams are already beginning to notice him, especially because Boly has not yet signed any professional contract with PSG. According to L'Equipe, the club's board made a very high offer to the Frenchman, which shows the faith they have in the young prospect despite the interest of other teams in him.
David could be a long-term solution for PSG, and from what we have seen, he has the coach's approval and the board's hopes placed on him.
As the same French newspaper indicated, Boly is determined to stay at PSG and demonstrate his skills under Luis Enrique's command, despite the fact that clubs like FC Barcelona are after him, so we will see where this ends up in the upcoming transfer windows.
