There are rumors that Marseille are about to sign Alexis Sanchez. The star player could not find a chance to play in Inter. He can play regularly at Marseille. In the last years of his career, he may want to transfer to a team that he can play regularly. Therefore, I see Marseille and Alexiz Sanchez close to each other. If this transfer takes place, both parties gain. Because Marseille need an experienced star for the league second place.
OM didn't contact Inter about a possible transfer and I believe these are all just rumours. They got young Suarez and they have already enough centre-forwarders. If you consider also his wage, I don't see a benefit from getting him honestly.

Today PSG played a friendly team with an easy team, at first I thought which team this is for Osaka, then I figured it out. We watched the passing traffic of Neymar and Messi, and they played a good game by passing without any effort as they were an easy opponent. Already two goals came from penalties. Osaka was not bad offensively, at least they were able to score two goals against PSG.
Gamba Osaka is a very weak team still under Kawasaki Frontale, it's only natural that PSG can score more a goals. Only Nuno Mendes goal amazed for me, it turned out that he was able to get a chance to score goals. By the way, there will be another match between PSG - Nantes, if I'm not mistaken maybe this week I remember at the match statistics, the average is 3 goals more and PSG are still be favorite to win.

Neymar has problems with discipline, when his team wins, then everything is fine, he will play well with a good mood, but as soon as his team loses, especially when it is an important match for the team, he starts playing very rough, he is nervous and reacts very aggressively to provocations. And Josep Guardiola loves when players are able to control themselves and are ready to give all their strength on the field. Neymar is a good player, but let's face it, he's a problem player.
His salary is 40.8 million GBP a year and I can understand PSG why they want to sell Neymar. For example, Mbappe receives almost half as much, but at the same time he is much more efficient and brings more benefits to the club. There may be those who will not agree with me, but this is my personal opinion.
Mbappe is a center forward although he can also play on the wing, while Neymar is a left winger or can also be played as an attacking midfielder, second striker or center forward. These two players have different roles although both can also score goals. Neymar is more active as a left winger and according to statistics he has recorded 177 goals and 127 assists in this position. He's ideal for assisting rather than scoring goals, but maybe people expect him to score more than he currently does.His salary is 40.8 million GBP a year and I can understand PSG why they want to sell Neymar.

I don't think there's much of a problem with him, but maybe PSG are starting to feel that his high salary has to be taken into account. He has been at PSG for 6 seasons but PSG are still fighting to win the Champions League title. That's another reason why PSG had to sell him, especially at the age of 30.

I heard that he is happy now at PSG and that he wants to stay there but It seems to me that PSG does not want Neymar. Some people think that Neymar would not fit in city, since they have great strikers like Foden, Mahrez and Halaand. However, I believe that Pep wants Neymar and let's remember that PSG will pay half of his salary and Man city has the money to pay 3 times the salary of Neymar. Besides, isn't City looking for a full-back to distribute the ball to Haaland? Right now, they only have it on the right side.

Today Neymar has clarify regarding his rumours linked to Man City and Chelsea that in PSG he was happy and want to stayed and help PSG to win more trophies but he will respect every decisions made by PSG whether they will decided to sell him or not and on the other hand PSG almost deal for transfer Nordi Mukiele from RB Leipzig that the fee for this player is 12 millions Euro plus 4 million Euro bonus and reported currently PSG and Mukiele agent will discuss about contract detail

I agree, Neymar will be doing a lot better in PSG and it would be better for him because he is happy there and established a fort. If he leaves now and goes to another club, he can't have any bad days or he can't be sustaining the same level of talent he used to show, which means that we shouldn't really be doing anything risky and that is why he is staying in PSG, which is why it is going to be decent for them because it would be a lot better in the long run for the club and for Neymar as well.
This isn't something we should be shocked about neither, it would be a lot easier to handle as well. Otherwise would be a lot more difficult to take care all of it with the transfer and the move and so forth.

Saw news about Casemiro making claims of the fellow brazil team mate
That if PSG don't want him any more that other clubs like Madrid does.
He scored twice today funny giving Neymar a penalty that was not really meant .

Yes, this also confirms that he is likely to stay with Paris Saint Germain. But that will change when Paris Saint Germain themselves want to sell him. But as he said, he will respect any decision Paris Saint Germain will make, in other words he is ready if Paris Saint Germain want to sell him. I think he is more confident now about the decisions PSG will take.

Actually I believe that Messi and Neymar both have left their brightest times behind. However PSG don't need their best ever performances now. They just need to see them being more productive than the previous season. This is very important to achieve the Champions League title now. The trio of Messi-Neymar-Mbappe can be even the best one in the world now. But if they don't play strongly all this wouldn't change anything. They would have another heartbreaking season in the CL.
The trio on paper is the best in the world currently. They can do really big things if they want too. Problem with Neymar is that he either dosent want to play or gets injured and that is the main problem for him. While Messi still needs time i guess to play at his elite levelPersonally, I believe Messi will not be able to perform very well unless the midfield of the team is proficient at passing. It is true that both Messi and Neymar are not in their prime anymore. But they can still play at the top level of any competition. If PSG just wants to win the league one title, they won't necessarily need these two players to perform very well.
But if they want to win the Champions League title, not only these two players but also the whole team will need to come forward and play as a team. Otherwise, the Champions League title is not for them. And if they do not win the Champions League, then there is no point in anything. Because they are going to claim the league title anyway without much of a competition.

Obviously, Neymar is not leaving PSG now, the luxury that PSG offers is hard to come by with other clubs. One of the reasons Neymar moved from Barcelona because PSG offered double the salary he received at Barcelona. PSG ambition to win the title on the Europa stage is no joke, PSG are willing to spend large sums of money to achieve their dreams, including extending the contract of Neymar who does not always appear consistent as the most expensive player PSG has ever had.
The contract was extended automatically. As I understand it, the only option that could prevent the automatic extension is the desire of the player, but Neymar wants to stay at PSG. After dissatisfaction with him at the club, he made several loud statements that everything would be fine next season ... but I don’t even know if he can keep his promises even if he wants to - the next season will be broken by holding the World Cup and what this will lead to is unknown .I have been pleasantly surprised by the performance Neymar has shown at PSG. I think I can safely say that his performance at PSG has been below par by his standards. But that is not going to bother too many people because PSG is obviously going to win the league title quite easily. For PSG, the Champions League trophy is their main goal, but they have not been able to achieve it. PSG is spending almost everything to win the Champions League title. And we can say that the midfield of PSG is not the most impressive. As a whole, PSG's squad is unbeatable in my opinion.
Anyway, Neymar has also not been performing well in the Champions League with PSG as well. And a few injuries also did not help the cause at all.

It seems that psg team started their friendly games with much weaker opponents but still they had difficulties against kawasaki frontale a well know japanese team they had a good performance offensively but their defense seem to have issues still, maybe because their new manager is still figuring the best strategy. On the otherhand lyon finaly managed to win a friendly game against feyenoord after two humiliating defeats against anderlecht 3 0 and willem II 5 0, honestly its not looking good for them their fans must be angry.

There is no doubt that Neymar is a talented player. But he was sidelined for more than half of the season due to injuries. PSG does not pay him such high wages to stay off the field. However, if Neymar does not face any major injuries next season, he will definitely prove his ability. Neymar even has the qualification of being the highest scorer in Ligue 1.
In recent times, we have very long talk about few things like PSG new coach and Neymar with this all now I am feeling this is going to be very crucial season for these all because PSG after spending good amount and having too many stars still fail to have any good result in UEFA which is big question mark for them so now if they still fail and have not good success then surely we are going to have some big changes in all departments even most chances management sell this club as now they are already fed-up with this all and having not good interest.Because, they have never been good at managing this all and with on and off the field issues are always giving them good headache recently we check they try to sell Neymar but with his salary no club wants to accept him which is also a big problem for them now we have to wait for final turn in this season how things happened for them.

I agree with your statement partly because right now still these three are one of the best in their business but as currently things are not going in favor of Neymar it's problem for him and PSG management they are desperate for offloading him but have no better choice and system to do this in very quick time he has never been ideal player here in this team with his behavior and things which are he doing here now as PSG management is sticking with few policies it's going to be hard for him to do his best and stay here otherwise it's going to be more problems for him with his lavish salary no other club can afford him and his game is also going down day by day which is another concern for management.I believe that we shouldn't really be considering him as a player who doesn't deserve to play in PSG, he totally does and when he does you will end up seeing him and how he plays and that is why I guess that we will understand why it was a good thing that they kept him.

In PSG when a certain player is in the final third of the field they really don't want to look up and pass the ball.
But in Barcelona, it almost felt like Messi knew what his teammates were about to do. And he positioned himself accordingly. The frustration of Lionel Messi is quite visible at times in PSG. Honestly, I don't think his poor form is apt to change unless he is playing the passing game that he is used to. He is not in his element unless he does so.

Spot on observation! They train you at Barca to always look up, so you have a team at least the top half of it constantly looking and being aware of space and opportunity, that's why the off ball movement is so great.
PSG players tend to even want to look down or pass instinctively, and it doesn't come off the way they expect. Messi seems to be the only one doing thinking 10 seconds ahead and everyone is just living in the moment.

The days of Messi and Neymar ate almost over.
PSG has to play to build Mbappe up very much than any other player.
What's more important is the Champions League. Isn't that cool to see neymar and Messi staying
