Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly willing to offload eleven of their senior players in this summer’s transfer window.
The French Ligue 1 heavyweights are looking to trim their squad and wage bill to a reasonable cap this season. They are ready to lose as many as eleven more players to achieve that.
They have begun this process by selling goalkeeper Alphonse Areola to West Ham for around £7.75m. The 29-year-old Frenchman was on loan at the London side last season but completed a permanent switch this week. Angel Di Maria also left in a free transfer.
According to L’Equipe, via Marca, PSG intends to follow up his sale with almost a dozen more sales before the window closes.
According to the report, new PSG football advisor Luis Campos has placed some big names like Ander Herrera, Mauro Icardi and Leandro Paredes on the list of those who can move away from the club.
The report adds that all three players have expressed their desire to stay, but Parc des Princes side are looking to offload the trio to balance their books as they are all on big-money contracts.
The Parisians are also willing to listen to offers for Sergio Rico, Marcin Bulka, Thilo Kehrer, Abdou Diallo, Idrissa Gueye and Arnaud Kalimuendo, who has been linked with a move to Leeds United.
The long-term futures of Neymar and former Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum are also believed to be uncertain, with PSG allegedly open to selling both players for the right price this summer.
