Thiago Silva on the forehead, Telles in the background

At almost 35, Thiago Silva has been a pillar of the Parisian workforce since his arrival in the Capital in 2012. As a structuring element of Qatari investments in PSG, the captain of the champions of France arrives on June 30 at the end of the contract. And discussions about his future are going well.

If the player went to the front by saying that he wanted to extend to Paris, negotiations to reach an agreement today seem to drag somewhat. Although an agreement on the duration of the contractual extension has been found - there is talk behind the scenes of one year of contract with one more optional year -, it seems that Leonardo is in no hurry to affix his signature, d 'as far as the Parisian sports director makes no secret of his research for a central defender.

Thus, the track that leads to Alex Telles is much more than a hypothesis, although Porto has so far received no offer from PSG. Leonardo would work ardently on this file behind the scenes ... despite the will of Thomas Tuchel to have priority side defenders. The German coach would like to prioritize a defensive left side and a more offensive side. In the background we would see a disagreement on the directions to give to Parisian recruitment in the coming weeks.
