According to reports in France, Paris Saint-Germain will not renew the contract of Brazilian defender Maxwell at the end of the season.
The French online page Buzz Sport states that one of the reasons for the resolution of the PSG would be to lose a position for the imaginable arrival of Brazilian striker Neymar from Barcelona. In France, clubs can have up to 4 players without European nationality in their roster. According to the online page, Neymar is the club’s “absolute priority” to reposition Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The Swedish striker’s contract may not be renewed and has been linked to a change to Manchester United in the Premier League. Maxwell, 34, has been at PSG since 2012. He went through the Cruzeiro youth formula and had episodes with major European groups such as Ajax, Inter Milan and Barcelona. The Catalan newspaper SPORT reported this week that Neymar would not pay attention to the scolding of other clubs this season and was already determined to remain at Barcelona.
