While rumors swirled about a potential winter transfer, Colombian international John Duran will remain with Aston Villa. Sources close to THE TEAM confirm that the Premier League club, currently competing in both the premier league and Champions League, has no intention of parting ways with the talented player during the January transfer window.
A Summer Move on the horizon?
Though, a transfer to Paris Saint-Germain might still be on the cards. THE TEAM reports that initial discussions between the clubs centered around a summer move, which appears to be a more realistic scenario.

PSG’s Big January Transfer Splash: A Breakdown with Former Footballer, Michael Owen
Welcome back, football fans! Today, we’re diving into the whirlwind of transfer rumours swirling around Paris Saint-Germain. To help us make sense of it all, we have former England striker adn football pundit, Michael Owen!
michael, thanks for joining us. PSG are making headlines with the impending arrival of napoli winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. What are your thoughts on this move?
Michael Owen: ”It’s a massive statement from PSG. Kvaratskhelia is a phenomenal talent, a real game-changer. He’s been electrifying Serie A this season, and he’ll add another dimension to Paris Saint-Germain’s already formidable attack.
It’s a big price tag, €70 million, but for a player with his potential, I think it’s a shrewd investment. He’s young, he’s hungry, and he’s only going to get better. I’m excited to see him strut his stuff in Ligue 1 and, of course, the champions League.”
The article also mentions that PSG’s pursuit of Aston Villa’s Jhon Duran appears to be postponed until summer. Do you think this is a wise strategy?
Michael Owen: “It’s a tough one. Duran is another exciting prospect, a young striker with bags of potential.But Aston Villa are in a strong position, they’re aspiring and clearly see him as part of their future.
They are right to hold onto him,especially with Champions League football on the horizon.I can see this one dragging on, but PSG’s persistent interest shows how highly they rate him.Summer might be the time if they’re really serious about landing him, but those transfer fees may only keep escalating.”
PSG are already stacked with attacking talent. Mbappe, Messi, Neymar – adding another world-class player like Kvaratskhelia makes them even more formidable. Is this overload of attacking talent sustainable?
Michael Owen: “It’s certainly an abundance of riches, isn’t it? On paper, it looks unbelievable, but let’s not forget football isn’t played on paper. Eagles don’t soar alone. They need a strong supporting cast.”
“PSG needs a balance. You can’t just rely on individual brilliance. they need midfielders who can control the game, defenders who can shut out the opposition, and a tactical system that brings the best out of all their attacking talent. Or else, you risk ending up with individual stars who don’t quite gel as a team.
It’ll be captivating to see how it all plays out under their new manager. Honestly, the pressure is immense to deliver Champions League glory this season. “
What do you think of PSG’s transfer strategy in general?
Michael Owen: “They’re certainly not afraid to splash the cash, are they? But simply throwing money at the problem isn’t always the answer.
PSG need to be smarter,more strategic in their approach.
They need to identify their weaknesses and address them, not just chase after the latest big name. They need to build a team, not just a collection of superstars.
Only then will they truly be in a position to challenge for the biggest prizes in europe.”
