Real Madrid and PSG set to battle it out for Courtois

Thibaut Courtois is a very important part of the Chelsea squad. The defending champions know the importance of the Belgian goalkeeper and have offered him a new contract which would keep him at the club for a long time.

The 25-year-old goalkeeper's current contract will run out in 2019 and despite having waited for over a month, is yet to sign a new contract, hoping that Real Madrid would move for him. According to the AS, Real Madrid and PSG are keeping tabs on his situation at the club and have shown an interest in signing him.

Real Madrid are interested in signing the goalkeeper as they seek to replace Keylor Navas. But, PSG have the finances to blow any club out of the water to get their targets.


Lucas Moura determined to leave Paris

International Champions Cup - Benfica vs Paris Saint-Germain
Will Lucas Moura leave in this transfer window?

PSG have an embarrassment of riches in their forward line. Lucas Moura was one of the regular members of the team last season when he made 53 appearances in all competitions for the club.

However, Neymar and Kylian Mbbape joined the club in the summer transfer window, which made it difficult for Lucas Moura to get playing time. The Brazilian winger has only made 6 appearances in all competitions for the Paris based club.

He has only managed to get 79 minutes of playing time, and seems frustrated with his current situation and is reportedly adamant to leave the club.

"It's true that La Liga could suit me. With my pace and my technique, I could perform well there. But it doesn't matter where I end up. I know what I can do. I didn't become an international by chance." he told L'Equipe.


PSG want Zidane as their new manager

Can PSG sign him?

Real Madrid are not having a successful season and if things don't go well in the UEFA Champions League, Los Blancos might decide to sack Zinedine Zidane. The Madrid manager has enjoyed a lot of success in management before this season and if he gets sacked a lot of clubs would be vying for his signature.

According to reports from Sport, PSG are keeping tabs on his situation as they identify him as a perfect fit to be the manager of the Paris based club. Unai Emery's contract at the club will come to an end and Ligue 1 leaders won't offer him an extension unless PSG goes deep in the UEFA Champions League.

PSG are not short of money but their board demands instant results. According to the reports, they are already looking for the substitutes and Zidane perfectly fits the bill.
