Lucas Hernandez Joins PSG From Bayern Munich
Ligue 1 side, Paris Saint Germain has announced the signing of 27-year-old defender, Lucas Hernandez from Bayern Munich.
A 2018 World Cup winner with France, Hernandez won a treble with Bayern in 2019-20 – his first season at the club.
Hernandez, who played 107 times for the Bundesliga champions and scored twice, has signed a five-year deal.
“I’m really excited,” Hernandez said. “I’ve been waiting to join PSG for a long time, and it’s finally happened. It’s a very special day for me and I’m very happy to be here.“
He played a key role in France’s 2018 World Cup win in Russia but, despite being selected for Les Bleus in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, a knee injury sustained in their third group game – the 4-1 win over against Australia – ruled him out for the remainder of the tournament.
They reached the final for a second consecutive tournament but were defeated by Argentina on penalties.
