EXCL: Busy Deadline Day for PSG, thoughts on Ligue 1 clubs in tonight's Champions League draw, and Thierry Henry's intriguing new role

Our man in France with this week's column on PSG's transfer plans, and much more.

Kolo Muani and Barcola lined up in busy end to the window for PSG

The transfer deadline is looming and it could be a busy next 30 hours or so for PSG, with potential deals for Randal Kolo Muani and Bradley Barcola the ones to watch. PSG will definitely try to get both of those deals done, and both players are in Paris at the time of writing in the hope of tying up those moves.

Crucially, we know that Kolo Muani has refused to train with Eintracht Frankfurt ahead of their European clash with Levski Sofia as he looks to put pressure on his club to allow him the move.

Meanwhile, Barcola has been one of PSG’s priorities since the start of the window and the situation at Lyon means they’ve allowed him to travel to Paris to complete the move.
