Oscar’s move to Shanghai SIPG on hold
Chelsea midfielder Oscar has been linked with a £52m move to Chinese Super League outfit Shanghai SIPG. However, according to Sky Sources, the Brazilian has expressed his desire to stay at Stamford Bridge and fit for his place rather than moving to China.
Oscar has featured sparingly for the Blues under Antonio Conte and the Italian has himself said that the situation regarding the Brazilian will be sorted in a few days.
"The situation with Oscar, I think it will be clearer in the next days," Conte had admitted recently.
PSG want James Rodriguez
Paris Saint-Germain have shifted their focus to out-of-favour Real Madrid star James Rodriguez. According to Corriere dello Sport, PSG owner Nasser Al-Khelaifi is willing to sit and negotiate a deal with Real Madrid for the Colombian international.
The Parc des Princes outfit want to sign a big name to fulfil the void left by Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s departure in the summer and Rodriguez is an ideal target. The Colombian has fallen down the pecking order under Zinedine Zidane and is struggling for first-team action. He has also been linked with moves to Premier League clubs but PSG are more than capable of blowing any competition away.
