The Portugal international becomes PSG’s sixth summer arrival in what has been a historic transfer window for the club that also saw them capture forward Lionel Messi, midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum, defender Sergio Ramos, and goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma on free transfers.
The club also landed right-back Achraf Hakimi from Inter Milan in a deal worth up to €70 million, as well as midfielder Danilo Pereira from FC Porto.
A product of Real Madrid’s academy, Sarabia joined PSG in 2019 from Sevilla.
