What departures seem almost imminent?

Ángel Di María

Di María, who was a substitute in the second leg against Los Merengues, will not have his contract renewed. The 34-year-old is destined for other European championships.

Wijnaldum

Signed this season on a free transfer after leaving Liverpool, Wijnaldum was not convinced by the French team's jersey. The Dutchman, who is under contract until 2024, should see his contract terminated.

Diallo, Dagba and Emimbe

Also according to the French newspaper, in addition to the duo, defender Diallo, full-back Dagba, and midfielder Emimbe are also leaving the club.

Kylian Mbappé

Mbappé is expected to join Real Madrid mid-year, despite PSG doing all they can to keep the striker.

What is the situation of other players?

Other athletes still have an undefined status at PSG, such as striker Mauro Icardi, midfielder Julian Draxler and midfielder Ander Herrera. PSG would like to sell the Argentine striker but know it will be difficult to recoup the €58 million they spent on the signing.

Draxler and Herrera, who are on high salaries, seem unwilling to leave the club before the end of their contracts.

Sergio Ramos, who suffered many physical problems and played only five games this season, is under contract until the middle of next year. His stay in Paris is an unknown quantity.

Messi and Neymar, who earn astronomical salaries, will stay at PSG. The pair showed no desire to leave the club.

Other names such as Brazilian defender Marquinhos, midfielder Verratti, full-back Hakimi and goalkeeper Donnarumma have their future with the French team assured.

The sports director will also leave

On the other hand, sporting director Leonardo will not continue in his position next season. According to the newspaper AS, the club's owner is not satisfied with the performance of several of his signings made last summer, in addition to how the negotiation for the retention of Mbappé was conducted.

The favorite to take the job is Italian Fabio Paratici, formerly of Juventus, who is currently in charge of Tottenham.
