Paris Saint-Germain confirms Gonçalo Ramos departure to Serie A giants
Paris Saint-Germain has just finalized its first major summer transfer, marking the end of Gonçalo Ramos’ three-year stint with the French capital club. The Portuguese striker, known for his lethal finishing, will join AC Milan on a long-term contract lasting until June 2031.
Club statements confirm transfer details
Both clubs have released official statements confirming the deal. Paris Saint-Germain declared: « Following three remarkable seasons where Gonçalo Ramos contributed to 12 trophies, including two consecutive UEFA Champions League titles, the club and the player have mutually agreed on this transfer.»
AC Milan promptly followed with their announcement, specifying the contract duration: « The Rossoneri have finalized the signing of Gonçalo Matias Ramos from Paris Saint-Germain. The Portuguese forward has agreed to a contract valid until June 30, 2031.»
Record-breaking deal shakes European football
While the exact transfer fee remains undisclosed, reliable sources indicate the deal involves a base fee of €74 million, with potential add-ons pushing the total to €80 million. This makes it the most expensive acquisition in AC Milan‘s history.
The transaction also ranks as Paris Saint-Germain’s second-highest outgoing transfer ever. Only Neymar’s 2023 move to Al-Hilal for €90 million surpassed this amount. Gonçalo Ramos’ departure places him ahead of former teammates Manuel Ugarte (€50 million to Manchester United) and Xavi Simons (€50 million to Tottenham Hotspur).
The summer transfer window is now wide open for PSG, with Luis Enrique expected to reshape the squad following back-to-back Champions League triumphs.
