From the source
Arsenal and Chelsea have both been handed a significant transfer setback, with Paris Saint-Germain making progress in talks over a new long-term contract for Désiré Doué.
The France international has developed into one of Europe’s most exciting young attackers and has attracted attention from several Premier League heavyweights. Arsenal and Chelsea have both monitored his situation closely, but PSG are now moving decisively to remove any uncertainty over his future.
According to TEAMtalk, PSG are advancing negotiations with Doué over an extension beyond his current deal, which runs until 2029. Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City have all carried out checks on the 20-year-old, but each club has reportedly been given the same message: Doué is not looking to leave Paris and is willing to commit his long-term future to PSG.
