      Several clubs are said to be tracking Ramos, but PSG are most interested in the Los Blancos captain, report AS.
      In fact, Ramos reportedly spoke to Florentino Perez in January about moving to the French capital.
      He told the Madrid president that PSG were planning to build a “great team” that included himself and Lionel Messi.
      And Ramos is believed to have added fuel to the fire of the rumours by following several PSG players on Instagram in recent days.
      However, per AS, Perez refused to comment on the speculation due to fear of his words being misinterpreted.
      PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino also did not want to get drawn into the transfer talk this week, stating: “Like every team we want to improve in all positions.
      Manchester United are also interested in the defender so the 35-year-old has a big decision to make over the next month.

      It is believed that he wants to finish his career at Real Madrid, but currently he is at odds with his club over the length of his contract extension.
      Meanwhile, PSG are apparently interested in Ramos’ defensive teammate, Raphael Varane, according to the same report.

      Brazilian ace Neymar, 29, recently signed a new four-year, £500,00-a-week contract at PSG so is in it for the long haul.
      His decision reportedly left Barcelona feeling ‘betrayed and used’ as they were keen to bring him back to the Nou Camp.
      In Turin, Juve may be forced to let Ronaldo leave at the end of the season if they don’t make the top four in Serie A.
      They currently sit fifth and outside the Champions League qualification positions – three points behind AC Milan in fourth with three games left.
      The Portuguese legend has reportedly become ‘nervous and irritable’ at Juve – and has ‘given up’ with five clubs said to be keeping tabs on the situation.
      And it appears Neymar would like the 36-year-old to join him at the Parc des Princes.
      Asked by GQ which player from history he would like to play alongside, Neymar said: “I would choose Cristiano Ronaldo – because I already played with great players like Messi and Mbappé.
      “But I haven’t played beside Ronaldo yet.”

      Top 10 most valuable footballers revealed as Erling Haaland overtakes Harry Kane but Kylian Mbappe is No1 at £162m

      by

      KYLIAN MBAPPE is by far the most valuable footballer in the world today, according to a new study.The Football Benchmark investigation by accounting firm KPMG estimates the Paris Saint-Germain star’s value to be £162million.

      The 22-year-old stands head and shoulders above the chasing pack, which is now led by Erling Haaland.
      At £112m, the Borussia Dortmund star is the biggest mover in the year-on-year study and jumps ahead of Harry Kane on the podium.
      Despite a small increase on his 2020 value, the Tottenham and England forward sits third on £109m.
      The valuations set the scene for a potentially mega summer in the transfer market.
      Real Madrid are said to be chasing World Cup winner Mbappe having publicly courted his services.
      But they could turn to Haaland, 20, if they fail to land the Frenchman.

      Agent Mino Raiola has opened the door to a move which could cost a total £300m.
      Manchester City, Chelsea and Barcelona are all reportedly keeping tabs on the Norwegian, as well as Manchester United.
      SunSport recently revealed Kane’s plans to consider his future at the end of the season with the Red Devils pondering a £90m offer.
      United’s own Marcus Rashford comes in at No4 in the KPMG list (£104m) ahead of England team-mate Raheem Sterling (£102m).
      Neymar (£100m) and Kevin De Bruyne (£97m) are next before the £94m trio of Jadon Sancho, Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
      No LaLiga or Serie A players make the cut, meaning both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo miss out.

      The study reckons Barcelona icon Messi, 33, has lost over half his market value ahead of his contract expiring in June.
      The Premier League comfortably topped the ranking of overall player value with each footballer in the English top-flight worth an average £17.2m before the Bundesliga on £10m.
      Manchester City boasted the most expensive squad at £962m ahead of Liverpool (£867.5m), Manchester United (£779m) and Chelsea (£765.5m).

      Neymar’s PSG contract includes secret ‘retirement’ clause letting him return to Brazil when he is 34

      by

      NEYMAR can quit PSG for Brazil when he is 34, according to reported clause in his new contract.The striker, 29, has already frustrated former club Barcelona by extending his PSG deal until 2025.

      And it’s claimed the new arrangement gives Neymar the right to stay an extra year on top of that – then return to Brazil to wind down his career.
      Brazilian newspaper UOL say Neymar’s main motivation in signing a contract extension with PSG is the expectation boss Mauricio Pochettino will spend big.
      But Neymar also knows it would be difficult for other clubs – stricken financially by the coronavirus pandemic – to match the terms of his contract.
      Barcelona, though, were said to feel “betrayed and used’ by his decision.
      They reportedly sent representatives to the French capital to talk to him over a possible return.
      But now Barca believe Neymar was always planning to remain with PSG.

      Neymar is now keen for French World Cup winner Kylian Mbappe, 22, to lengthen his PSG contract.
      And having won the Champions League with Barcelona in 2015, the South American superstar is hungry to achieve the same with the French giants.
      PSG lost 1-0 to Bayern Munich in last year’s final before exiting to Manchester City 4-1 on aggregate in this year’s semis.

      Arsenal ‘consider transfers for Moussa Dembele and Odsonne Edouard to replace Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah’

      by

      ARSENAL are putting together a shortlist reportedly including Odsonne Edouard and Moussa Dembele as part of their summer overhaul.Mikel Arteta has hinted at a very busy transfer window currently under construction at the Emirates following a disappointing campaign.

      Last night, SunSport revealed that Hector Bellerin is among the stars on the chopping block.
      And Alexandre Lacazette, Matteo Guendouzi, David Luiz and more are being readied for a move.
      According to the Telegraph, French striker Lacazette could be joined by Eddie Nketiah in leaving this summer, with two stars eyed as replacements.
      Lyon forward Dembele, 24, has spent the second half of the season on loan at Atletico Madrid but is yet to score for the LaLiga leaders.
      Still yet to start for his new club, the Frenchman can move for a pre-agreed £30million fee in the summer but his poor form and fitness issues make that an increasingly unlikely option.
      Dembele remains under contract at Lyon for another two years yet is reportedly available for around £25m should Atleti let him go.
      A slightly cheaper option, at around £15m to £20m, is said to be Celtic star Edouard.
      The SPFL runners-up may seek to cash in on the 23-year-old ahead of his contract expiring in 2022.

      The striker has hit 21 goals in all competitions for the Glasgow outfit this season.
      But any Arsenal approach may come up against fierce competition from Leicester, who are also thought to be keen and are set to be able to offer Champions League football next season.
      The Gunners maintain an outside shot at a Europa League or Europa Conference League finish and travel to high-flying Chelsea on Wednesday.

      RENNES 1 PSG 1: Neymar penalty not enough as 10-man PSG drop crucial points in draw with Rennes to dent title challenge

      by

      NEYMAR celebrated his new contract by scoring a penalty but it was not enough to earn ten-man Paris Saint-Germain a win in a major dent to their title challenge. Serhou Guirassy equalised for Rennes with a header 20 minutes from time before Presnel Kimpembe saw red late as the Ligue 1 race remains out of the champions’ hands.

      Mauricio Pochettino’s side sit second on 76 points, three adrift of leaders Lille with two games to go.
      Lille thrashed RC Lens 3-0 on Friday and now need four points from their last two matches against mid-table Saint-Etienne and Angers to guarantee their first Ligue 1 title since 2011.
      There was a minute’s silence in memory of former PSG and Rennes goalkeeper Christophe Revault, who died earlier this week at the age of 49.
      PSG threatened early on through Ander Herrera and Neymar, but Rennes were quick on the break, with Jeremy Doku proving a nightmare to handle for Layvin Kurzawa on the right wing.
      The visitors were awarded a controversial penalty after a VAR review even though Nayef Aguerd made contact after Kurzawa had already fired over.
      Neymar, who penned a fresh £500,000-a-week, four-year deal on Saturday, squeezed the spot-kick through Alfred Gomis in the sixth minute of first-half stoppage time.
      Doku continued to torment PSG’s defence after the break but the Rennes goal came from a set-piece as Guirassy thundered his header into the top corner from Benjamin Bourigeaud’s corner.
      Once again, just like against Manchester City, PSG lost their cool and centre-back Kimpembe was shown a straight red card for a brutal challenge on Doku on 87 minutes.

      It took a superb save by Keylor Navas to deny Flavien Tait in added time to salvage a point for PSG, who are chasing a fourth successive Ligue 1 title.
      But the French giants could remarkably end the season without a major trophy.
      After being dumped out of the Champions League by City and reliant on Lille slipping up in the league, Poch’s side travel to Montpellier in the French Cup semi-finals on Wednesday.
