Paris Saint-Germain’s Leonardo says the club will not re-enter the market during this transfer window following a busy off-season.

Thiago Silva, Ezequiel Lavezzi, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Lucas Moura are among the big new names added to PSG’s squad as the September 4 transfer deadline approaches.

At the presentation of defender Thiago Silva, signed along with Ibrahimovic from AC Milan, sporting director Leonardo revealed any further moves from Ligue 1’s big spenders are unlikely.

“This will be the last presentation of a player this season,” he told reporters on Friday.

“(Our dealings) are over.”

However, the club have been linked to several right-backs in the last two weeks, including Juventus’ Stephan Lichtsteiner and Lille’s Mathieu Debuchy, and Leonardo refused to rule out the possibility of a late signing.

“Normally, the transfer window is over,” he said.

“It is true that (Milan) Bisevac has gone to Lyon.

“We have ten days and we will see if we can get a right-back. But in normal circumstances, our business is over.”
