PSG sign young Lucas Digne from Lille

Lucas Digne has completed his move to the French capital side PSG for a reported fee of around €15m.

PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi admitted that he was delighted with the move.

“Lucas Digne, a rising star of French football and recent winner of the U20 World Cup, was the subject of transfer interest from a number of major clubs and has chosen Paris Saint-Germain to continue his progression on the European stage. We are delighted to welcome this young French player into our squad”, said Nasser Al-Khelaifi.

The team was in a need of a left back after the club backup Sylvain Armand left for Rennes on a free transfer.

“To play for Paris Saint-Germain, with these exceptional players, is a dream come true. I’m very happy. After the World Champion title in Turkey, I am having an incredible summer. I would like to thank the club for the confidence they have placed in me”,  said Lucas Digne on the official site.
