PSG could offload as many as ten players this summer, as uncertainty lingers over Kylian Mbappe and Neymar’s futures and new boss Luis Enrique looks to put his stamp on the squad.

The likes of Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos have already left the French giants as free agents – with the former joining Inter Miami.

And Mauro Icardi and Georginio Wijnaldum are among the other big names who could be on their way out of the Parc des Princes in the coming weeks.

According a report from Le Parisien, PSG are aiming to sell all of their players who spent last season out on loan.

Joining Icardi and Wijnaldum – who were on loan at Galatasaray and Roma respectively – in that group are Colin Dagba, Abdou Diallo, Julian Draxler, Layvin Kurzawa, Keylor Navas and Leandro Paredes.

Mbappe, meanwhile, is said to have told PSG that he won’t be extending his contract beyond next summer – which, if true, would likely force the Ligue 1 champions to try and cash in on their most-prized asset before the end of the current transfer window.

As for Neymar, the Brazilian superstar has been linked with a host of clubs – ranging from Chelsea to Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Hilal, who tried and failed to sign Messi earlier in the summer.

A hive of transfer activity

It’s already been an extremely busy summer at the Parc des Princes, with PSG bringing in no fewer than seven new faces so far.

Among the fresh arrivals in Paris are Marco Asensio – who joined as a free agent after leaving Real Madrid – and Manuel Ugarte, who completed a €60m move from Sporting Lisbon last week.
