It’s been a while since we’veseen the creation of a dream team in a transfer window until we witnessed PSG‘s amazing activity this summer. Paris Saint-Germain have built one of the mightiest teams of all time by landing the world’s best Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos, Achraf Hakimi, Gianluigi Donnarumma, and Georginio Wijnaldum. But now, it seems like they would be switching their attention to the players who would have to leave.
Paris’ transfer market has been excellent, securing world-class names who had run out of contract and only spending a transfer fee for Hakimi – which was pretty decent. But even though we’re talking about one of the wealthiest clubs on the planet, their wage bill has risen significantly and they might pay attention to it. Besides, if they plan to landCristiano Ronaldoand Paul Pogbanext summer, this will be an even more important matter.
PSG don’t seem to be the club that needs to worry about its financial situation, but that doesn’t mean itshouldwaste the money. According to L’Equipe, Paris would be willing to offload these players and raise some funds.
Rafinha

The Brazilian has arrived at Paris last year from Barcelona amid an exodus in the Spanish club. Rafinha appeared in 23 Ligue 1 games but has never played a pivotal role in the team. With Marco Verratti, Leandro Paredes, Georginio Wijnaldum, and Ander Herrera ahead of him, he doesn’t seem to have much room in the squad.
Layvin Kurzawa

He used to be a starter at the left-back, but Abdou Diallo seems to have earned that position right now. Layvin Kurzawa, 28, hasn’t featured in theLigue 1this season and could leave the club as he isn’t a regular starter anymore. He has two years left on his contract, though, so PSG could cash in for him.
Thilo Kehrer

The most surprising name on this list, the French outlet has also named Thilo Kehrer as a possible player up for sale. The German center-back has started for Paris in their first two league games. It is true that when Sergio Ramos and Marquinhos are readythey would step into the lineup, but Kehrer is still a great alternative, especially considering Ramos’ constant injuries.
Pablo Sarabia

The Spanish right-winger arrived in Paris from Sevilla two years ago for a bargain of $19.80 million. Pablo Sarabia has done decently in PSG but has never shone norwas he a regular starter. His playing minutes would be reduced even more with Messi, Neymar, Angel Di María, and Julian Draxler above him. Therefore, his time in the French capital could be over soon.
