Psg and Liverpool are keeping a close eye on Ryan Cherki's situation at Manchester City. Both clubs could make a move for the French midfielder in 2027 if City find themselves needing to offload some of their star players due to potential sanctions.
According to TEAMtalk, Cherki has already caught the attention of both clubs, although discussions regarding a transfer are not currently underway.
This interest is closely linked to Manchester City's ongoing issues relating to alleged financial rule breaches in the Premier League. An independent commission has found the club guilty of serious violations dating back from the 2009/10 season through to the 2017/18 season, including allegations of inflating revenues and understating expenses by over £900 million through supposed fake contracts.
City are contesting the commission's findings and have lodged an appeal. While the final penalty remains undecided, there are concerns that significant sanctions could dramatically affect the club's future.
If City are ultimately forced to tighten their purse strings or sell players, Cherki could emerge as one of the most sought-after talents within the squad.
After a mixed debut season in England, the Frenchman has made a bright start to the 2026/27 campaign, boasting four goals and two assists.
Moreover, Cherki is contracted to Manchester City until 2030, with a transfer value estimated at around €90 million. Thus, even in an adverse scenario for the club, his exit isn't viewed as a foregone conclusion.
