No financial details were given by the club, but the 28-year-old Cabaye reportedly cost €20 million ($27.3 million) with an additional €5 million ($6.8 million) in bonuses. Cabaye is renowned for his outstanding shooting from distance and is a free kick specialist, giving PSG that extra bit of firepower that it lacked in a workmanlike midfield featuring ball-winners Blaise Matuidi and Thiago Motta.
