PSG reject Man City offers for midfielder Echegini

Paris St-Germain has rejected multiple offers from Manchester City for midfielder Jennifer Echegini. The 25-year-old Nigerian international is a vital part of the Parisian club, with a year left on her contract. Before joining PSG, Echegini spent most of her youth career in England and played for Juventus for a season. Last year, she scored the decisive goal in the Women's Africa Cup of Nations final against Morocco, contributing to Nigeria's record-extending 10th title win.

Manchester City have until the transfer deadline, which falls on Thursday, to secure any signings prior to the beginning of the Women's Super League season this weekend. Meanwhile, Vivianne Miedema, who plays in midfield and attack, will be sidelined for the start of the season due to a knee injury. On Wednesday evening, PSG will face Eintracht Frankfurt in the Women's Champions League third round qualifying tie.

BBC Sport reported earlier this week that Arsenal had agreed terms to sign France defender Elisa de Almeida from PSG. Reports suggest that the fee for de Almeida could be around £550,000, and she is expected to join the London club before the transfer deadline on Thursday.
