Who will be able to get rid of PSG this winter?

With the approach of the winter transfer window, Paris Saint-Germain would think about downsizing an oversized workforce and underutilized in certain positions, according to our colleagues from RMC and theTeam. So who are the players whose departure could be interesting, sportingly and financially? A few names came to mind in order to help the Parisian leaders to make room in the lockers of Camp des Loges.

Layvin Kurzawa: it’s dead

Arrived at the club in 2015, he is still under contract in Paris until June 2024, with a salary of… 3 million euros net per year. A potty, you will say to me? We must believe, since, a sign of well-thought-out management, it was extended last summer just before the arrival of Nuno Mendes. He has only played nine minutes this season but, according to RMC, the former Monegasque refuses any offer to leave Paris, where he has his habits, as they say. Interests in Turkey and Lyon were revealed last summer, but no one wants to pay such a disproportionate salary to a defender who hasn’t played for two years.

Rafinha: Itou

With one game a month and passable performance, he’s one of the players tidy in the back of Pochettino’s office cupboard. The situation and the lack of playing time do not seem to embarrass the Brazilian. He too feels good in Paris, despite the coming winter. A volunteer in the hold of La Liga to help Leonardo empty the bulky items?

Growing up: A voir

The young PSG side has appeared twice this season for 97 minutes played, even though he had been rather convincing last season on first-rate matches (Bayern in C1). Considering its potential and its young age, a departure on loan this winter may be possible. Unless the departure of Hakimi from the CAN can allow him to enter the rotation. But if it’s to return to the cellar in February …

Sergio Rico: What is he waiting for?

A small appearance this season: the Spanish goalkeeper has not sprained too much so far. Conferees evoke a few intakes in the country, but it is perhaps the agent who raises the sauce. The basic problem? Like his friends, the 28-year-old goalkeeper feels good in Paris, where he earns a salary much higher than his output. Visiting museums with the family should be enough for their happiness.

Mauro Icardi: it depends on Wanda

After the crazy story of his relationship crisis with Wanda, the Argentine striker abandoned everything in order to win back his wife, with some success. If Wanda decided to leave, Icardi would be ready to follow her wherever she went so as not to disappoint her a second time. And as he is confined to a role of joker to put his monthly whim in the last ten minutes, the Italian could be tempted. Does a Serie A club have the money to repatriate him this winter? No, probably, but Juve really need a goalscorer …

And Mbappé, then?

Wouldn’t it be the right time to grab a little checkos from Florentino? We’re kidding.
