The return of an exile squad at PSG? | OneFootball

Randal Kolo Muani and Renato Sanches are back at Paris Saint-Germain after more or less successful loan spells at Tottenham and Panathinaikos. A solution is being sought for the departure of the 27-year-old striker, who is under contract until 2028, and the 28-year-old midfielder (under contract until 2027). In the meantime, they have resumed training with the Espoirs group, according to L’Equipe.

We should not jump to conclusions too quickly: this return to training outside the professional squad could also be linked to schedule management. The professional team has just gone through two very demanding seasons, and many players even took part in the World Cup, which ends this weekend. With the return not scheduled until July 25, Kolo Muani and Sanches may have come back earlier in order to regain rhythm, especially with a transfer in mind.

However, it is entirely possible that the two players will not join coach Luis Enrique’s squad when training resumes. That raises the possibility of a kind of “loft,” with the two professional players being set aside. A practice criticized and opposed by the UNFP (National Union of Professional Footballers). Caution is needed, though, especially when a player is unexpectedly or unfairly pushed toward the exit. Here, everything has been clear for some time. The players must still be entitled to proper working conditions.

Let’s wait and see what happens next; at least Kolo Muani and Sanches have a group and are not training alone during preseason. Ideally, though, a transfer would be completed soon. PSG are in talks with Juventus over the first, but nothing has been mentioned regarding the second.
