If I'm not mistaken, currently there are no players from PSG who have joined the Saudi league team and it seems that now Verrati is starting to get attention from Al-Hilal. This seems like a very good offer for Verrarti, especially if he is interested in making more money each season. But he is still 30 years old for sure it is still good enough to play in Europe and especially if he stays at PSG of course he will still get regular minutes.

Verrati's decision will be a little hard whether he wants to leave Europe early or stay with PSG for another 2 seasons, considering that currently PSG also needs an experienced player at the club and if Verrati leaves later it will certainly have a significant impact on PSG this season. front.

Saudi clubs are scouting players at all levels in attempt to make their pro division league competitive for European players. A lot of things I could think of are going on in PSG, and it would only take their rigorous regulations to keep their players and the issue discreet. There are players that want to leave the club, and leaving PSG has always been on the Italian player Marco Verrati's mind, but he believes leaving PSG would be pointless and difficult, especially because he signed a deal until June 2026, and PSG's demands will be exorbitant for any club ready to sign him. Marco Verrati lacks the intensity that Jose Mourinho seeks, yet he fits the style of game.

Another rumor is AS Roma and Jose Mourinho are trying to bring Veratti back to Italy and help him to have a first debut in Serie A.

Marco Veratti has never played a single match in Serie A as after a successful season in Serie B with Pescarra, he moved to PSG and played there so far. Veratti was a young player in Pescarra in that season together with Insigne and Immobile. News about that.

They must convince Veratti to accept a lower salary and as an Italian player, having a chance to play in Serie A before a retirement is good experience for Veratti.

There was a first rumor a while ago about Veratti leaving PSG and being in contact with one of the Saudi clubs. His salary isn't that high at the moment and for Al-Hilal this is mostly one of the cheaper transfers, but still a good one as he brings some quality to the team.

Al hilal makes a move to get veratti from PSG. The club knows that if PSG may try to sell him. Even al hilal's delegation has been also going to the paris to meet him. I hope that verratti will not miss a chance to join in al hilal as soon as possible.
Playing in the french league is a bit boring caused by PSG is the only strong team in this league. I hope that verratti will not reject al hilal's offer.

I have heard that if mbappe already made an agreement with real madrid to join in the club for upcoming season. It's caused by mbappe tries to help madrid to avoid non sense release clause fees by PSG.
I hope this news is real.

As I said earlier, money rules the world, so on the contrary, I would not be surprised at all if Mbappe stays in Paris for at least this season, especially when it turned out about the so-called loyalty bonus of 90 million euros. I think that Real Madrid will quite accept such a scenario and will wait for the player next year after the completion of the player's contract with PSG. However, one should not discount the oriental temperament of the owners of Paris Saint Germain, something unpredictable can also grow on this soil, both for Mbappe and Real Madrid, and for you and me.

But what is the chance that Mbappe saying he loves Paris and he wants to stay at PSG is meant seriously? i never thought when I watched him play for PSG that he is a happy player, someone who enjoys being where he is right now and who is giving his best in every single game he is playing for that club. He had that dream when PSG told him that they are going to buy all those that they could bring the Champions League title to Paris, but now with all those players parting ways this dream is gone and while everybody makes decisions for their career, he will be the next one to leave PSG. It would leave me speechless if he touches the grass as a PSG player in a few weeks from now.

Here I think that what is most sought is that Messi is a very influential person, and besides this, I am sure that the leaders of PSG or rather the sheikh will regret having let Messi go, because for me PSG is not Such a strong team, and since their biggest star has already left, well less, and obviously the followers will decrease, at PSG they have had very good players, but I don't know what is happening, that for some reason they make them leave not very well, for me it is a pity that he has gone to a league as low level as the MLS, but as I have said, he thinks of his peace of mind, his family and having a good experience, Messi has nothing to do to demonstrate, because he already demonstrated it having won everything, he is much bigger than Maradona, so this is something that is recognizable.

For many they will realize that Messi is just another player, but it is not like that, many will regret when he retires from football, because there are few players like him.


Mbappé is a player who has a lot to prove at PSG, he is the player who is the most technical up to now and the one who has the whole team to himself, he should take advantage if he stays at PSG, as such, he wanted to get many out players, including Neymar, in part they have already left PSG a lot, he can reign as he wants, personally I don't think he will go to Real Madrid, saying no to Madrid is saying no forever, to Madrid, any player who accepts their offer is not worthy of having a second chance, they have shown it that way and they have continued to do it that way, I don't think they will start inventing to put a player above the club, that has never happened, at least in the white club no.

As is well known, this player has an eo that is too high, perhaps this is what is closing the doors for him, if everything they say or what is being speculated happens, I insist, I do not think he will go to Madrid, but not because of him, but because they don't want him at the club anymore, that they don't say it up front is something else.

Well, next season Lens will be tested with a fairly busy schedule of matches in various competitions. if they're not ready to deal with it, don't be surprised if Lens suffers a drop in performance. which means, they won't be as good as they were in the 2022/2023 season.
at least, Lens will take part in 3 competitions, be it Ligue 1, Champions League and also the Coupe de France. because of that, Fanck Haise had to prepare his team and at the same time deepen it by bringing in several newcomers. because if not, they may experience fatigue as happened to Marseille last season. the absence of several injured players could be a significant obstacle for the Lens squad in the coming season. So, you can be sure that Fanck Haise will have a tough task next season. that's why Fanck Haise must be better prepared with his squad for next season even though their focus is on the Ligue 1 competition.

As for Marseille, I'm pretty sure that even though they have changed coaches, they will still be a strong team for the League competition. in fact, under the tutelage of Marcelino, it is possible that Marseille will become an increasingly competitive team.  well, let's just wait after the new season starts. in fact, I'm quite curious about Lens' performance in the 2023/2024 season. so, let's wait.

If Mbappe stays, of course he will play his best in every possible game (obviously taking into account the need to rest, etc.) - it is too expensive to keep one of the strongest strikers and the most expensive player on the bench. After all, PSG are paying him for his services, so they should try to get the most for their fee. And I don't think that Mbappe created any problems for PSG - he pulled this club all these years, they should be grateful to him.

I don't really follow Lens, how active they are now in the transfer market, it is important to keep all the leaders in the team after a successful season, and besides that, if they really want to do well in the Champions League, then they should think about strengthening the team, since another tournament will increase team load. In general, yes, Lens had a very good season, they have the best defense in Ligue 1, in my opinion Marseille has the best funding, but apparently this is not enough to compete with PSG, but Lens was close to it.

It seems that Mbappe is ready to move to Real Madrid next year as a free agent and if this is true, it is unclear how PSG will behave. Will Mbappe make the squad? On the one hand, to put him in the squad knowing that the player is leaving is not very good, because it is not very clear how he will play? Will he give his all and even if he does, the club still knows that he will leave at the end of the season.
PSG can put young and promising players in Mbappe's place, but then a player who gets a lot of money will just sit on the bench.
In general, Mbappe has created a lot of problems for the club with his decision.

Kane seemed to want to go to Bayern, but so far Tottenham have not given permission for the transition.

We are hearing many rumors about Neymar. But they don't seem realistic to me. PSG management wants to sell Neymar because Neymar's fitness is not good. His performance with PSG has not been good due to a lot of injuries. Neymar's chances of injury in Premier League are more. So why would any team spend so much money to sign Neymar when his future is completely uncertain? Premier League clubs are very rich but they are not stupid.

If Mbappe leaves PSG, maybe PSG will try to bring another player to the team. In that case, English star Harry Kane's name may be on PSG's list of favourites. PSG have expressed interest in Harry Kane, but it remains to be seen if Harry Kane will eventually join PSG. Because the English star can go to a club that will fulfill his dreams of winning the league title and the Champions League title, in this case PSG can never be his best club. And I agree with you that it will be difficult for PSG to win the league title next season because PSG has already lost several players. There are good quality teams in Ligue 1 who faced PSG when they were at full strength, but now that they are star-less, PSG may lose their league title next season.

If Mbappe is still going to play at PSG then I'm sure PSG will not try to sign Kane. Unless yes, if Mbappe leaves in the transfer window this summer then of course, PSG will continue to have efforts to be able to bring in Kane and or maybe other players. Thus, PSG still won't be able to get any better in the Champions League because after all, if several PSG key players leave then that will also be enough to make it difficult for PSG to maintain its dominance in Ligue 1.

Already full version. You can also watch his interview directly.

Afaik, the situation has been changing a lot after world cup. His relationship with mbappe seems to become very complicated as mbappe can't even accept if messi has been beating him in the final of world cup.

He is happy in his new team now but it's also giving messi trauma to come back again to the league 1.

There are a lot of rumours, but it is certainly not just a hope for someone, but also about an agreement between the two clubs, because from what I read on Tweet @FabrizioRomano, the offer from Bayern Munich has not been approved by Tottenham for one player. this (Kane). But that also doesn't rule out PSG if they can offer a higher offer than Bayern Munich, but for now I also don't think PSG are interested in Kane.

If Neymar manages to earn injuries in the French Ligue 1, then it's scary to even imagine what will happen to a player in the English Premier League with its intensity and extreme rigidity, when the referees are more loyal to the power struggle on the verge of a foul, and often a foreign foul. Therefore, I will be sincerely sorry for the English club that will still risk signing a player. And I'm afraid that there may still be such simply because of the status of the player, for example, the same Newcastle to raise its status or Chelsea for marketing purposes. However, it is just Neymar's high salary demands that can alienate the absolute majority of applicants, because it is in English conditions that this is not the most optimal balance between the benefits of the player and how much the player costs the club.

Among PSG, Lens and Marseille trio only Lens haven't changed their manager recently. And Lens really don't need a change at all after this superb season. The way they left Marseille behind and had a huge point gap with them at the end was really impressive. It is doubtful if they can do well in the Champions League group stage though. But it is early to say something before seeing their group there.

Lens' priority would be to keep consistent in the Ligue 1 of course. They will really need to work harder because this season might be more challenging than they assume maybe. I don't think Marseille would be this out-of-form next time.

Yes correct, but I wasn't talking so much about Neymar's performances and his contributions to the team. His whole transfer to PSG was more of a promotion and while I agree with you that as a player he didn't pay back the money that was paid for him, he attracted a lot fans from around the world to follow PSG. He was more of an attraction than a valuable contributor to the team's success. If now thee names like Neymar, Messi and Mbappe leave the club, that represents a significant caesura in the most recent history of the club.
