Italian starlet Ndour leaves PSG on loan

Italy talent Cher Ndour has officially left PSG, joining Portuguese side Braga on loan until the end of the season.

PSG have confirmed Ndour’s temporary transfer until the end of the campaign.

“Midfielder Cher Ndour has joined SC Braga on loan until 30 June 2024,” the Ligue 1 giants wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

“Paris Saint-Germain wishes Cher success for the second half of the season with SC Braga.”

The 19-year-old central midfielder made four appearances with PSG this season, scoring one goal.

He joined the Ligue 1 giants last summer on a free transfer from Benfica B.

A product of Brescia, Atalanta and Benfica academy, Ndour left Italy in 2020, joining the Portuguese giants on a permanent transfer.

He won the UEFA Youth League with Benfica and became U19 European Champion in 2023 with Italy.

During his time at Benfica, he became the youngest player to make his debut in their B squad, beating a record that previously belonged to Joao Felix.

Ndour had been linked with a return to Italy earlier in the January transfer window with Cagliari, Palermo and Sampdoria interested.
