Beautiful people in (almost) all positions.
Internationals from all walks of life who will soon have an important decision to make.
Players who have only six months of contract left in their respective clubs.
Three possibilities are then available to them: extend their lease or leave for other skies this winter in return for a transfer fee or wait until next summer to freely join the club of their choice.
Since the opening of the transfer window on January 1, these players have been authorized to negotiate with other clubs for their next contract, on July 1.
A situation which concerns in particular
Milan Skriniar
, the Slovak defender of Inter Milan, ardently courted by PSG since last summer.
The specialized site Transfermarkt establishes its value at 60 million euros, a fairly substantial sum for a 27-year-old player at the end of the contract.
Six months ago, the club demanded 80 million euros to sell its player while Paris only offered 65. The soap opera could well be back for a second season.
But at PSG, the priority is quite different: the club intends to finalize Lionel Messi
's contract extension
, back in training on Monday and whose lease also expires in June.
According to our information, an agreement was concluded to this effect between the two parties during the World Cup in Qatar.
Benzema on track to extend, not Thuram
In this five-star list of players at the end of the contract, we also find…
Karim Benzema
.
As surprising as it may seem, the 2022 Ballon d'Or has still not extended his lease at Real Madrid.
Nevertheless, the discussions between the main stakeholders seem to be on the right track.
The Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, transfer window specialist, even announced in October an agreement for an extension of the "Nueve" until 2024.

Conversely,
Marcus Thuram
, who participated in the 2022 World Cup with the France team, should not last forever in Germany.
His contract with Mönchengladbach is coming to an end and the son of Lilian arouses the envy of the side of Inter Milan.
Author of 10 goals in 15 league games this season, he should nevertheless go to the end of his lease.
His value is estimated at 32 million euros by the Transfermarkt site.
Alongside Thuram, two other tricolors will soon have a decision to make regarding their future.
N'Golo Kanté
has only six months left on his contract with
Chelsea, but the midfielder, deprived of the World Cup due to injury, could however return to the upscale district of the British capital, according to The Athletic.
Adrien Rabiot
, very successful in Qatar, could also receive an extension offer from Juventus, according to Calciomercato.
