PARIS (AP) " French champion Paris Saint-Germain bolstered its attack by recruiting Spanish forward Jese on a five-year deal from Real Madrid. Jese became the fifth player hired by the French champions this offseason after Hatem Ben Arfa, Grzegorz Krychowiak, Thomas Meunier and Giovani Lo Celso. "I am delighted to join Paris Saint-Germain, who have become one of Europe's most competitive clubs," Jese said. The 23-year-old Jese scored 13 goals in 62 league matches with Madrid over the last three seasons, and also featured in 15 Champions League matches. PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi, whose main goal this season is to win the Champions League, said Jese's "speed and creative qualities will complement our excellent attacking players."
