Football: Portuguese striker Goncalo Ramos signs with Paris Saint-Germain (club)


The French capital club announced today, Monday, the signing of Portuguese striker Goncalo Ramos, on loan until the end of next season, with an option to buy.

Ramos, 22, who played for his training club Benfica Lisbon, becomes Paris' eighth summer signing after defenders Milan Skriniar and Lucas Hernandez, midfielders Manuel Ugarte and Cher Ndour, forwards Marco Asensio and Lee Kang-in and goalkeeper Arnau Tenas.



A great hope for Portuguese football, the striker (7 caps, 4 goals) shone remarkably during the last World Cup in 2022, where he distinguished himself with a hat-trick in the round of 16 against Switzerland (6-1) where he was preferred to the star Cristiano Ronaldo in the starting lineup. This was his first start with the national team.

He was already in the ranks of Paris Saint-Germain last season before achieving the best performance in his career by scoring 27 goals and making 12 assists with Benfica, in all competitions, and the Portuguese league title.

“I played for Paris Saint-Germain for five years. I scored 109 goals. Now it's up to you to write the history of Paris Saint-Germain. Welcome to our club,” he said after welcoming his compatriot and former PSG player Pedro Pauleta earlier in the evening in a video posted on the Parisian club's social media shortly before his arrival was officially announced.

With the arrival of Ramos, PSG has its hands on a much-coveted number 9 after the failure of the Harry Kane file, very close to signing with Bayern Munich. This transfer was once again facilitated by the proximity between PSG's “football advisor”, Luis Campos, and the player's representative, the Portuguese super-agent Jorge Mendes, who has placed several of his prestige in Paris for a year thanks to his connections with his compatriot.
