According to French media reports, Cherki, who had already reached an agreement with PSG, changed his mind at the last minute and decided to join Dortmund, infuriating the PSG executives. They had convinced Cherki to join their ranks, but the deal was cancelled at the last minute.
Cherki, considered the prodigal son of Lyon, decided to join PSG after being persuaded by Campos and Enrique. However, Dortmund intervened and showcased their expertise in developing attacking players, citing examples such as Dembélé, Sancho, Haaland, and Bellingham.
Dortmund also promised Cherki the number 10 jersey and presented no major obstacles to a potential future transfer. This led Cherki, after weeks of negotiations with PSG, to ultimately choose Dortmund over PSG.
Earlier, Cherki, with one year remaining on his contract with Lyon, had agreed to a €15 million transfer to PSG. However, his change of heart at the last minute angered the PSG executives, including Campos and Enrique.
It’s worth noting that Dortmund did not offer Cherki a better deal than PSG, and it was even slightly inferior. This last-minute hijacking has left the PSG executives perplexed.
