The presence of Gabriel Moscardo in Portugal, beginning his vacation earlier than expected, confirmed an imminent decision. This confirmation fell this Saturday with the formalization of a one-year loan from the young midfielder of the PSG Brazil, age 19, at Sporting Braga, without option of purchase. After a difficult arrival in Paris and a brilliant loan to Reims, Moscardo had hoped to win with Luis Eurique in the last summer, but failed to break into the Paris team. Despite his invitation to the World Cup of Clubs in the United States, he had no opportunity to play.
The loan decision in Braga is strategic, as the Portuguese club is ambitious and aims to qualify in the Europa League, an objective that corresponds to the interests of the PSG, which holds a stake in it. This new structured environment is considered ideal to promote player progression. The PSG remains invested in the development of Moscardo, as evidenced by the absence of a purchase option in the loan contract, demonstrating their confidence in its potential.
Gabriel Moscardo now has to convince Carlos Carvalho, the Portuguese coach, thanks to his work and his performances in the field. The PSG hopes that it will take a significant step forward during this period, potentially paving the way for a stronger return to the Paris team in the future. This loan represents an opportunity for the young player to develop in a stimulating environment and prove its value.
