In another surprising twist after Juventus talks fell apart, now it’s claimed Paris Saint-Germain have decided not to buy Parma goalkeeper Zion Suzuki either.
The plan had been for PSG to purchase the Japan international at €35m including add-ons, and then loan him out to the Bianconeri for this season.

A few days ago, Juve became frustrated with the delays and terms of the deal, so backed out of the loan and turned to other targets.
Suzuki talks suddenly collapse

Now multiple sources including transfer pundits Fabrice Hawkins and Fabrizio Romano claim Paris Saint-Germain have also withdrawn from the negotiations.
They were ready to exchange documents and schedule the medical today when his agents reportedly made a last-minute additional request, which infuriated the Ligue 1 giants.
Now Paris Saint-Germain have withdrawn entirely and seem to have no intention of changing their minds.
It now gives Juventus a window to pursue Suzuki directly, although that might be difficult with the costs involved.
Instead, Aston Villa may well go after him, which in turn could allow Emiliano Martinez to come to Juventus.
