The “undesirable” professionals mentioned there, which also includes ex-Schalke player Julian Draxler, have been canceled for the club’s upcoming preparatory trip to Japan at the end of the week. Campos’ goal is to clarify the future of these players before the league starts on August 6th.
In addition to Draxler, who was recently suffering from a knee injury and whose contract in Paris runs until 2024, the newspaper also names Mauro Icardi, Layvin Kurzawa, Ander Herrera, Georginio Wijnaldum, Abdou Diallo, Sergio Rico (all contract until 2024), Junior Dina Ebimbe, Rafinha and Idrissa Gueye (all contract until 2023).
