PSG has always been known in the transfer market not only for making big signings, but also for the large number of contract players. However, the arrival of Luis Campos as sporting director was made to change just that, because it was a formula that has not worked for the club. It is with this criteria that in the current transfer window only a few players were incorporated in very specific positions on the field.
In fact, Vitinha was the most expensive player that PSG bought in this market, as it cost them 50 million euros to take him from Porto. But the rest of the players they have signed were quite cheap, considering that they were mostly player in French soccer. Likewise, Christophe Galtier was also key to the club's determination because he is a coach who feels much more comfortable working with a fairly small group of players.

For that reason, PSG was quite busy in this transfer market trying to free up space in the squad by letting go of players who did not get too many minutes. While there were cases such as Pablo Sarabia who earned his continuity in the preseason friendlies, Galtier put together a fairly extensive list of expendable players. Mauro Icardi, Leandro Paredes and Idrissa Gueye were among those who stood out from the French coach's discards.
With which player would PSG get rid of €8 million?
In the last hours, PSG reached an agreement with Ander Herrera to terminate his contract due to the fact that neither of them would benefit from his continuity. While the club was going to lose a lot of money for a substitute player, the player was going to have very few minutes in the season. Therefore, the French side managed to release the Spanish midfielder; which translates into a saving of 8 million euros in wages.
