After an average first part of the season at Monaco, Maghnes Akliouche raised his level in 2026. Enough to secure his place at the 2026 World Cup and put him back on PSG's radar for the next transfer window.

A particularly exciting year 2026 for Akliouche, 24. The young Monegasque prodigy is expected to be on the France squad list for the 2026 World Cup.

In the meantime, he is one of Monaco's leaders in the race for Europe and the Champions League. Like his team, the talented player has been very performant over the last two months after a notable slump during the winter.

His annual tally is seven goals and nine assists in all competitions. One must also add an assist with Les Bleus against Colombia last March.

Enough to confirm the young man's immense talent, but also to wake up the big European clubs in the transfer market.

According to Foot Mercato's Santi Aouna, Akliouche is on the radar of several English clubs and also of Paris Saint-Germain.

The Monegasque has been seducing Luis Campos for several years. The failed transfer of the forward to PSG last summer does not call this recruitment into question. Neither does Luis Enrique's wish to avoid shaking up the Parisian squad in the transfer window.

Endowed with silky technique and good physicality, Akliouche is, above all, very versatile. He can play as a winger or an attacking midfielder. He would be an ideal replacement for Fabian Ruiz, seriously injured in recent weeks.

Seducing the native of Tremblay-en-France in the Parisian suburbs will not be a problem. It is rather AS Monaco that will be difficult to convince. The principality club will be very greedy financially for its gem. The strong and wealthy English competition will favor a price increase for the French international, hindering PSG's plan.
