- Laurent Blanc was reported as being very close to an exit from Paris Saint-Germain, and fresh reports coming in from L'Equipe are suggesting that he is set to be handed a €22million compensation package by the club.
Despite spending big, PSG have been unable to make it count in Europe, with club president Nasser al Khelaifi describing the 2015-16 season as a failure because of the club's elimination from the Champions League by Manchester City at the quarter-final stage.
