Last season PSG signed Messi, Donnarumma, Wijnaldum & Ramos for a total of zilch.. nada...nowt... not a bean.
this season they are being heavily linked with Pogba and franck kessie.. again, for a total of zilch.. nada...nowt... not a bean.
now while Wijnaldum hasnt been a raging success he could still be sold for a tidy sum with a few teams sniffing around... the only failure being Ramos.
this season the likes of
Dybala
Kessie
Sule
Brozovic
Boubacar Kamara
Denis Zakaria
Ousmane Dembélé
as well as a list of others as long as your arm are available and free to be talking to clubs about making a free move in the summer.
Given how poor we are on the pitch currently, we are still an attraction with the ability to pay well... and lets be honest, most listed would walk into our team currently... just dont understand why other than the whispers over the last few days about Zakaria, we do not seem to be putting the feelers out.

Where you say "zilch" you mean massive wages, signing on fees and agent costs?

PSG know what they are doing. They know how much revenue these big names bring to the club. We should be trying to emulate them. We should let the likes of Pogba go for free so he is not draining our wage bill. Then in a couple of years, buy him back for £90m or so. We would make it all back immediately in shirt sales due to his popularity. It makes perfect business sense.

Noussair Mazraoui's contract is coming to an end in June as well and I think would be somebody worth looking at.
Him and Brozovic could solve quite a few problems for us.

The only one of those at PSG that could be considered even a marginal success is Donnarumma.
The other three have flopped hard.

I think football is heading towards free transfers being the norm. Transfer fees have become so ridiculous now that they are just not sustainable. Look what it's done to Barca.
I think more and more players will run their contracts down from now on and then take their pick. I'm all for this because valuation of 100m for one single player is just crazy and look at how many of them don't work out too.

He did and it's coming. He is a wise man and was a great coach.
I miss the Fergie v Wenger days.

Isn't Mbappe in the last year of his contract as well?
