The Strasbourg right-back is hoping for a dream move to the Parc des Princes this summer
“From the beginning, everything is transparent with the president [Marc Keller],” Lala said to 20 minutes.
“If it is possible to go to see higher, [I am] open. There have been proposals. Afterwards, I question myself. Maybe I'm not good enough? Maybe I have to do more to go higher?
“I do not want to say the names [of the clubs that have approached me] but there have been two good clubs and they had ambition. PSG? I would have liked [to go there]. It's nice to hear that and I do not see who would refuse to go.”
Despite the defender’s clear desire to move on, no deal has yet been reached to sell him and Lala insists that is down to Strasbourg demanding a fee they feel is fair for his services.
“It is not me [that has stalled negotiations]. The agreement between the clubs was not made. All that is numbers, it is not me who manages.
“To be clear, [I’m not sure if I will stay]. I'm here, I'm waiting. Since the beginning of the prep, I'm doing my matches. I am professional and I see what is happening. In 10 days everything is possible. I do not exclude a departure.”
It has been suggested that the fact that Lala is 28 years old has been a deterrent for potential suitors, who may be discouraged by the lack of resale value he has.
“When I see people talking about my age, it makes me laugh. I'm 28 but it's not my fault! I fought to get here. When I look at my career today, I'm happy. My last four seasons, I'm constantly growing.”

Not when you're a 27, almost 28 year old full back like Kenny Lala. That's the end goal with maybe a Euro selection.

90% of people who know Kenny Lala only know him because he ended up being one of the best RB’s on FUT19

PSG should go full Bayern ( Bayern fans I know you dont do that anymore dont kill me) and poach french talent from Ligue 1 instead of signing mercenaries that know nothing about club history or culture.

Acctually not that much. It's more about his image rights and having privileges.

Even though they went to bigger teams, those players were offered more money than psg did.

Lala would ba another good L1 player in PSG, they have many of those already. He wouldn't make the team much better, he's not top 8 team quality like Kherer, Areola, Paredes, Draxler..

For real though, PSG’s weakest points are their fullbacks in my opinion. Does any PSG fan mind letting me know why they’re looking for reinforcement at RB? Between Lala and Semedo. I thought Meunier was pretty decent? I would have assumed LB was their big question mark

I meant they're not top 8 starters worthy either

Meunier has been a defensive liability and was responsible for our loss at the weekend. He has put in some screamers for us though, and a few decisive passes but an upgrade is warranted. I'd say most fans would agree with me.

I don’t think it would be a risky buy. I believe at worst we’d have a good squad player.

I don’t play fifa and I actually watched Strasbourg last season. Those are the facts and I’m sticking to them.

They didn’t want to offer a longer contract. Players these days can play well regardless of age. Psg will struggle to find another class player in that position. I would go for Lala

Lala could be decent as well, unless he's already promised to PSG due do Dani Alves departure.
