PSG executives last season, who will survive the summer? Three days before the resumption of Ligue 1, there are many more questions on this subject than answers. While Neymar and Verratti, two of PSG’s most important players, have missed the last two collective sessions, in a climate of uncertainty about their future, our colleagues from RMC Sport reveal that they were received, along with three other players (Hugo Ekitike, Juan Bernat and Renato Sanches), so that the club told them that it was no longer counting on them. Consequently, they did not take part in today’s media day, dedicated to taking the official photos of the season.
The entourages of two of the players mentioned confirmed with the Parisian that Luis Campos and Luis Enrique actually met them this Wednesday morning, and that a departure from the club had been discussed. Information that supports trends and rumors that have been emerging for several days. Marco Verratti has been the subject of a concrete approach from the Saudi club Al-Hilal. Doubt remained about his true intentions. Those of PSG now seem clearer and could definitely push the Italian to turn the page.
The case of Neymar is less surprising. Luis Campos, with the support of his president, has been trying to part with it for more than a year. But the proposals are rare, because of his salary and the doubts surrounding his last injury.
Renato Sanches has had links with AS Roma. The recruitment by PSG of Gonçalo Ramos and his interest in Randal Kolo Muani had suggested a reduced place in the workforce for Hugo Ekitike. As for Juan Bernat, his starving playing time during the tour in Japan did not speak in his favor.
Undesirables… But not lofters?
A new salvo of “undesirables” in a Paris Saint-Germain workforce cut in half for several weeks, between the “lofters” led by Kylian Mbappé and the professional group. However, it is not said, to date, that the Bondynois will be joined by Verratti, Neymar and others in the second training group. In the entourage of the Brazilian, we were firmly assured this Wednesday that the Parisian number 10 “will remain where he is”, understand in the training group led by Luis Enrique. Solicited, the representatives of the Italian did not wish to comment for the moment.
With Verratti and Neymar, Paris would lose two executives, two stars and two players who marked the history of the club. The Italian is the most successful and the second most capped, the Brazilian the 4th best scorer and 5th best passer… It would not be a small page that would be turned. The summer is far from over at PSG, and it has not finished spilling ink.
