PSG Have No Interest in Pursuing Colombian Standout Wanted by Tottenham, West Ham
PSG looked to strengthen their midfield last summer and identified Palmeiras standout Richard Ríos as a top target. The Colombian midfielder impressed at the 2024 Copa América, playing a key role in his country's run to the final before falling to Argentina. Advertisement In August 2024, Antena 2 Deportes reported that PSG submitted a €20 million bid for the 24-year-old, who had also drawn interest from AC Milan and Manchester United. However, despite PSG's efforts, UOL revealed that Palmeiras' president made it clear Ríos wasn't for sale—even with the Ligue 1 side pushing their offer to €20 million. Does PSG have no interest in Palmeiras' star?A recent report revealed that PSG are in discussions with Palmeiras for their midfielder. Luis Campos has reportedly given the green light, and Luis Enrique is said to want the player to bolster his midfield. The deal could total around €30 million. Advertisement However, journalist Arthur Perrot quickly dismissed the rumor. On his X account, the PSG specialist for RMC Sport responded to a tweet citing South American press reports with two red Xs, indicating the claim is false. It therefore appears PSG are not pursuing Ríos. Back in February, CaughtOffside reported that West Ham, Nottingham Forest, and Tottenham were all closely monitoring the progress of the Colombian midfielder, with plans to potentially make a move this summer. However, none of the three Premier League clubs are willing to pay his €100 million release clause. Tottenham were especially keen during the January window, but talks never moved past the early stages as Palmeiras refused to budge on their asking price.

Tottenham Set to Challenge Nottingham Forest, West Ham for €100M-Rated PSG Target
Paris Saint-Germain looked to strengthen their midfield during last summer's transfer window and identified Palmeiras midfielder Richard Ríos as a key target. The Colombian caught the club's attention with his standout performances at the 2024 Copa América, where he played a crucial role in his nation's run to the final before falling to Argentina. Last August, Antena 2 Deportes reported that PSG submitted a €20 million bid for the 24-year-old, who had also drawn interest from AC Milan and Manchester United. Despite PSG's pursuit, UOL revealed that Palmeiras' president made it clear to the board that Ríos was not for sale—even as the Ligue 1 club pushed their offer to €20 million. On Sunday, CaughtOffside reported, citing sources, that West Ham, Nottingham Forest, and Tottenham are keeping a close eye on the Colombian midfielder's progress and are prepared to make a move in the summer. However, all three Premier League clubs are unwilling to meet his €100 million release clause. Tottenham had shown strong interest in signing Rios during the January window, but negotiations never advanced beyond initial talks as Palmeiras remained firm on demanding the full release clause.
