United States international striker Timothy Weah might get more opportunities for first-team soccer with Paris Saint-Germain this season. After Weah scored two goals in PSG’s friendlies and scored his first League 1 goal against Caen last week, the club is now reluctant to let the 18-year-old leave on loan.

According to sources close to the club, League 1 newcomers RC Strasbourg Alsace approached PSG recently, wanting to bring Timothy Weah on loan. However, they were informed that the deal is unlikely to happen; at least at this point.

PSG wants to determine how Weah adds to the team’s depth and whether he can be a viable option in their already stacked attack. They might be, however, convinced that a move to a club where he can play regular soccer will be more beneficial for him.

Timothy Weah, son of former FIFA World Player of the Year winner George Weah, is considered to be one of U.S.’s biggest soccer talents. He made his debut for Paris Saint-Germain on March 3, 2018, and went to play two more games for the season. Weah scored his first goal against Monaco in the French Super Cup competition back in August. In 2018, he also made his senior debut for the United States.
