French media: Cherky resigned last summer and refused to join, but Paris Saint-Germain got a better Duer

May 14th French media le10sport said that after Cherki reneged on his word last summer, Paris Saint-Germain signed Douai, and now he believes Douai is a better choice.

Paris Saint-Germain was very close to signing Cherki last summer. Lyon had accepted a 15 million euro offer, and Paris Saint-Germain and Cherki also agreed to a personal contract. But Cherki suddenly changed his mind before signing the final letter. He hoped to wait for Dortmund's offer and renew his contract with Lyon until 2026 later.

Cherky's actions angered Paris Saint-Germain, and Paris Saint-Germain signed Douai from Rennes for a high price of 50 million euros. After joining the 19-year-old Douai gradually grew into the main player of Paris Saint-Germain. He made 51 appearances this season, scored 13 goals and assisted 13 times, and was selected for the French national team. Paris Saint-Germain now believes it is a good thing not to sign Cherki because they have got a better Douai.
