Willem Geubbels has attracted interest from Serie A clubs as Paris FC consider offers for the 24-year-old forward, according to reports in L’Équipe. The France youth international has struggled to cement a regular starting role since his €9m move from FC St Gallen last summer, sparking speculation that the Ligue 1 side may cut their losses.

Mixed fortunes in the capital

Geubbels completed 27 appearances across all competitions last season, though only 15 of those were starts. He contributed five goals and one assist—a modest return for a player signed to spearhead the club’s attacking line after their promotion to the top flight.

The Villeurbanne-born striker, who began his career in the Olympique Lyonnais academy, remains under contract with Paris FC until 2030. However, his fluctuating status between the starting eleven and the bench has placed his long-term future at the club in doubt.

Attacking exodus likely

Geubbels is not the only forward facing the exit door. Jean-Philippe Krasso, the 29-year-old Ivorian striker who joined in 2024, is also expected to depart. Krasso played a pivotal role in securing promotion to Ligue 1 but saw his form dip following a knee injury suffered in early April.

The potential departure of both players would mark a significant overhaul of Paris FC’s attacking options, barely a year after the club invested heavily to strengthen their squad for top-flight survival.

What happens next

While specific Serie A clubs remain unnamed, the interest signals growing competition for Geubbels’ signature during the current transfer window. Paris FC will likely seek to recoup a significant portion of the €9m outlay they paid to Swiss side FC St Gallen twelve months ago, though his lengthy contract provides the French club with leverage in negotiations.
