Luis Enrique does not count on two players in his squad and would seek to make them leave this January.

As he prepares to raid Brazil with Lucas Beraldo, the Sao Paulo defender (20 years old), and Gabriel Moscardo, PSG would intend to downsize its squad a little during the month of January future. According to an indiscretion signed Le Parisien, the Ile-de-France club would like to sell Hugo Ekitike and Layvin Kurzawa, on whom the club staff does not count.

The 21-year-old striker and the 31-year-old full-back have each played eight minutes this season in Ligue 1. Ekitike has a comfortable salary and a contract until 2027, but is not even included on the list of the club for the C1, while he is still sidelined in the championship. A loan with a purchase option would be considered for a player worth approximately €15 million.

With a big salary in Paris, Kurzawa was loaned to Fulham last season, without shining. Recruited in Monaco in 2015 (25 million euros), the full-back will have to lower his considerable Parisian emoluments if he wants to find a base and relaunch his career elsewhere.
