Problems for PSG. In plain negotiation with Neymar and Kylian mbappé for the renewal of their respective contracts, 'L'Équipe' has revealed that the Parisians presented a report to the National Directorate for Management Control (DNCG) of the Professional Football League (LFP) with projected losses of 204 million euros for the 2020-21 season.
The financial crisis generated by the coronavirus pandemic has provoked these red numbers at PSG, one of the richest clubs in the world, who now see how their plans surrounding the future of their players have to adapt to the circumstances.
And the solution seems quite clear: sell some of their key players to be able to balance the books. But it is not the best time for the club to be embroiled in this financial crisis, as they work against the clock to tie down its two stars, although they would go so far as to have to part with one of them if the situation doesn't improve.
And the Brazilian is ahead of the Frenchman. That is according to the newspaper 'Marca', the same source that states that his possible exit from the Parc des Princes would directly lead him to the Santiago Bernabéu, where Real Madrid await him with open arms.
But it's not just selling certain players we are speaking about. If the club is forced to get rid of players to recover some money, it's obvious that they won't be able to sign any players. This means that the signing of Leo Messi is in danger.
