      Sergio Ramos ‘ready to listen to transfer offers’ as PSG ‘tell him they will make great team with him and Lionel Messi’

      by

      REAL MADRID skipper Sergio Ramos has reportedly been told by Paris Saint-Germain that they want to sign him AND Lionel Messi this summer.
      Both the Spanish centre-back and the Barcelona legend are in the final year of their contract and are free to speak to other clubs about a switch at the end of the season.

      Paris Saint-Germain could make a number of signings in the summer

      Los Blancos boss Zinedine Zidane has spoken of his confidence that Ramos, 34, will pen a new deal at the Bernabeu.
      But reports from Spain have claimed that the World Cup winner is seriously considering his future having been courted by Les Parisiens.
      According to El Chiringuito TV reporter Josep Pedrerol, the ex-Sevilla defender has spoken to Real president Florentino Perez about PSG’s proposal.
      He stated that ahead of Madrid’s 1-1 draw against Elche, Ramos told Perez: “I am not accepting the proposal you have made to me and from now on I will listen to offers.”

      Before adding: “Someone from PSG has told me that they are going to create a great team with me and Messi.”
      To which Perez allegedly said: “If you have a good offer we will understand.”
      Should the duo make the move to France, then Mauricio Pochettino would boast a side truly capable of winning the Champions League.
      And he is already looking to convince star duo Kylian Mbappe and Neymar to pen new deals at Parc des Princes.

      It could be a busy summer for PSG, with SunSport exclusively revealing that Pochettino is eyeing up a reunion with Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.
      Lloris has one year left on his contract in North London, and Spurs could cash in on the shot-stopper should he decide to move on.
      Should he join the Ligue 1 outfit, Colin Dagba could retain his spot at right-back having impressed this season.
      Meanwhile Dutch youngster Mitchel Bakker has starred at left-back having featured in 22 games already this term.
      A centre-back partnership could consist of Ramos and Marquinhos, with Poch to also rely on the likes of Presnel Kimpembe and Thilo Kehrer.

      Marco Verratti and Idrissi Gueye could start in the middle of the pitch behind Dele Alli.
      It is understood that PSG remian keen on signing the England international with Pochettino a huge fan of his former attacking midfielder.
      PSG could then boast the deadliest trio in world football with Neymar and Messi playing either side of French marksman Kylian Mbappe.

      Chelsea should NOT sack Frank Lampard say fans but believe Tuchel should take over if Abramovich gives legend the boot

      by

      CHELSEA fans do not want Frank Lampard sacked but think Thomas Tuchel should replace him if Roman Abramovich gets rid.
      The Blues boss is under pressure having gone three games without a win.

      After Chelsea were beaten 3-1 at home by Manchester City on January 3, Lampard admitted to ‘feeling the heat’.
      The West Londoners slipped to eighth and are without a win since they beat West Ham 3-0 on December 21.
      And the pressure is ramping up on club legend Lampard who splashed more than £220million on six new players last year — including £48m struggling striker Timo Werner.
      But Blues fans told SunSport they are sticking by their legendary former midfielder in a poll conducted on Monday.

      To the question ‘Should Chelsea sack Lampard?’, 43 per cent of Blues supporters answered ‘Yes, going backwards’.
      But 57 per cent were keen on their boss to stay answering ‘No, give him time’.
      However, Chelsea have had ten managers in 12 years and Roman Abramovich is not known for his patience with the men in the dugout.
      So SunSport also gauged who Blues fans want in if Lampard does get the boot.

      It was a close run thing but Tuchel – who was recently sacked by PSG – just nicked it with 29 percent of the vote.
      He narrowly beat RB Leipzig gaffer Julian Nagelsmann who was just two per cent behind on 27.
      And Max Allegri and Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers came in third and fourth respectively with 23 and 21 per cent.
      Speaking after the City defeat, Lampard said: “I will always feel the heat.
      “I felt the heat when we were on our good run because I know that around the corner can be the negative.
      “And we are not a team that has been churning out results and has got to the level of Liverpool or Man City.
      “It is my job to focus on working on the players, not what the people above are thinking — that would just distract me and I can’t do it.
      “We went 16 games unbeaten and a month ago everyone was asking me about where we can go, where am I going to go, where’s the new contract?
      “Now people will be saying the opposite — I can’t control that. The pressure remains constant in this job and you know in tough moments that will be there.”

      According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Leeds are among the clubs interested in signing him.
      AC Milan, Inter Milan, Sevilla and Hertha Berlin have also been linked to the PSG star.
      But Leeds have been long-term admirers of the 56-cap Germany international.
      In September, it was reported that Marcelo Bielsa’s side were plotting a move for him.

      Draxler admitted that he almost left PSG in the summer to seek a new challenge.
      He said: “In the summer I thought about trying to do something else.
      “Due to the coronavirus situation, it was ultimately difficult to find a club where I would have said: ‘Everything fits well together, I definitely want to’.
      “That was not the case, so I decided that I would not dare to take a quick shot and keep looking for my chance at Paris.”

      Draxler been with Paris Saint-Germain since he joined them from VfL Wolfsburg in 2017.
      But he has made just nine appearances this season, scoring two goals and making one assist.
      As well as eyeing a move for Draxler, Leeds are set to hand Patrick Bamford a new deal.

      by

      According to AS, Pochettino is hopeful that Mbappe will extend his stay at Parc des Princes.
      The Ligue 1 side are keen to end any speculation surrounding his future as soon as possible.
      Ex-Monaco star Mbappe has been linked to the likes of Real Madrid and Liverpool.
      He remains keen on a switch to the Bernabeu despite opening contract talks with PSG.

      It is reported that the 22-year-old would like to link up with Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane.
      Liverpool could offer the World Cup winner the chance to play in the Premier League.
      According to L’Equipe, the Reds are increasingly confident of signing Mbappe.
      With his contract set to expire in 2022, Pochettino needs to act fast to secure his services.

      Mbappe has been a huge hit since he made the move to PSG from Monaco in 2017.
      He has chipped in with 104 goals and added 59 assists in 141 games for the Ligue 1 side.
      The 22-year-old has guided them to three Ligue 1 titles and two French Cups.

      How PSG could line up under Pochettino with Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Dele Alli linked with transfer splurge

      by

      MAURICIO POCHETTINO has returned to management with Paris Saint-Germain.
      The French giants ruthlessly sacked Thomas Tuchel just hours after a convincing 4-0 thrashing of Strasbourg last month.

      Pochettino, who had been out of work since being axed at Tottenham in November 2019, was confirmed as the German’s replacement on Saturday.
      And already a whole host of names have been linked with making their own move to PSG.
      As revealed by SunSport, Tottenham face a battle to keep hold of goalkeeper and captain Hugo Lloris amid talk of a reunion with Poch in his homeland.
      The North Lononders are already looking at potential replacements with West Brom’s Sam Johnstone and Dean Henderson of Manchester United potential targets.

      And the PSG midfield could have a very different look to it once Poch gets his own recruitment done.
      Dele Alli, who was heavily linked with PSG in the summer, could also link up with his former boss.
      And Christian Eriksen may also do the same by joining from Inter Milan.
      PSG already have a mouthwatering attack – but that could get even better.

      Lionel Messi is yet to agree a new deal at Barcelona, and he will be a free agent in the summer.
      PSG are one of a handful of clubs who could afford his wages, with Manchester City also keen to sign the 33-year-old.
      He would link up again with his old Barca mate Neymar.
      With Kylian Mbappe at the tip of the attack, it would surely give PSG their best chance at winning the Champions League.
      Critstiano Ronaldo has also been linked with a move to PSG, but that would more likely only happen if Messi didn’t join.
      Pochettino was out of a job for 13 months following his sacking by Tottenham 13 months ago.
      ALLI TO FOLLOW?
      He had been holding out for the Manchester United job with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s position under constant scrutiny.
      But after a disappointing start to the season Solskjaer has got United back into the title race and the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup.
      Pochettino is now back at the club where he played between 2001-03.
      And his first transfer target now the window is open again is one of his former players at Tottenham.
      While Alli was a regular in Pochettino’s teams he has fallen out of favour with current boss Jose Mourinho.
      The England international, 24, has started just five games this season and was hauled off shortly after Stoke equalised in their 3-1 Carabao Cup quarter-final victory on Wednesday and publicly blamed by Mourinho for their goal.

      Mauricio Pochettino ‘set to be announced as PSG boss’ with first job to convince Neymar and Mbappe to sign new contracts

      Fabrizio Romano claims a contract between Poch and PSG has already been signed after the Ligue 1 champions axed Thomas Tuchel.
      PSG are now set to confirm the ex-Tottenham man’s arrival in the dug out.
      And Pochettino will soon meet with sporting director Leonardo to identify transfers target for both this month and the summer.
      SunSport understands Spurs captain Hugo Lloris is a target for 2019 Champions League finalist Poch.

      PSG also remain interested in Lloris’ team-mate Dele Alli after missing out on the midfielder in October.
      And Poch would also like a reunion with Christian Eriksen after he was transfer listed by Inter Milan.
      However, the priority is to convince Neymar and Mbappe to extend their current deals past 2022.
      PSG face selling the star pair next summer to avoid losing them on free transfers if they snub new offers.

      And Pochettino will do all in his power to keep them in the French capital as he looks to build a side worthy of winning Europe’s top prize.
      Neymar has long been linked with a return to Barcelona after he left them for PSG in a world record £200million move in 2017.
      Meanwhile, Mbappe is reportedly Real Madrid’s top target and could be ready for a fresh challenge after dominating French football with PSG and Monaco.

      Neymar says he has ‘nothing to do with’ five-day Neymarpalooza as models jet into Brazil for party at £6million mansion

      by

      MODELS from around the globe have flocked to Brazil for a five-day New Year’s Eve bash dubbed ‘Neymarpalooza’ – despite the PSG superstar saying he’s “nothing to do” with the event.
      Neymar’s £6milion rented mansion in Rio de Janeiro has been linked with the controversial party as models post glamorous photos on Instagram with messages like: “Let’s go by jet to end the year with glamour.”

      Brazilian influencer Ana Liz Bittencourt posted photos on Instagram showing the wristband that grants entry to the controversial party

      Kiki Passo, Michelle Nevius and Jessica Bartlett are now said to be in Rio de Janeiro after the models flew in from the USA

      Critics claim the private jamboree for 150 people, reportedly costing around £568,000, is poorly judged as Brazil is one of the nations hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic, and millions live in poverty.
      But after Agencia Fabrica confirmed the celebration at the Costa Verde venue, Neymar’s lawyers told AFP: “It’s a matter for the agency and it has nothing to do with Neymar.
      “We have no information about such an event.”
      Models Kiki Passo, Michelle Nevius and Jessica Bartlett flew in from Miami, allegedly invited by 28-year-old Brazil striker Neymar and his pals via Instagram Direct.  

      Meanwhile, Brazilians Camila Remedy and Fernanda Brum are said to have arrived at his mansion on Monday by private jet from Porto Alegre.
      It was they who posted: “Let’s go by jet to end the year with glamour.”
      Brazilian influencer and model Ana Liz Bittencourt showed pictures of herself wearing the wristband that apparently guarantees entry to the event.
      It’s even claimed Neymar’s ex-wife Carol Dantas, 27, has been invited, along with sports stars, plus the models and influencers.

      And he has also given around £700k to UNICEF to help Covid-19 sufferers.
      Agencia Fabrica insist the event will stick to coronavirus safety guidelines.
      In a statement reported by Goal, they said: “Agencia Fabrica clarifies that it is the creator and producer of New Year’s Eve event in the Costa Verde region, in the State of Rio de Janeiro, which will receive approximately 150 people.
      “The event will take place in compliance with all health standards determined by public agencies.
      “The company also clarifies that the private event, with exclusive access for guests and without ticket sales, happens with all licenses from the competent bodies necessary for its realisation.”

      But human rights lawyer Augusto de Arruda Botelho joined fierce critics of the celebration.
      He tweeted: “The idiot trophy for the day goes to Neymar for his five-day party.”  
      Neymar has also been accused of setting a poor example to home-country youngsters who idolise him.
