If Used Properly, PSG Have a Potential Superstar Signing in Hatem Ben Arfa

Over the last few seasons, Paris Saint-Germain have been no strangers to paying large transfer fees for players. Spending €64 million on Edinson Cavani is still their record purchase, but no one would be surprised if they surpassed that in the near future.

In the current market, it's hard to say that any club can find a bargain, but PSG may have already done that this summer. Hatem Ben Arfa scored 17 goals and added six assists for OGC Nice last term, helping them finish fourth in Ligue 1.

That was a remarkable finish for Claude Puel's side, and the boss has been rewarded with the role as coach of Southampton, and the former Newcastle United playmaker has won himself a contract at the Parc des Princes.
