Koulibaly won't join PSG
Kalidou Koulibaly will not join PSG in the summer, according to his agent.
Koulibaly is Manchester United’s top transfer target but has also been linked with PSG and Real Madrid.
But his agent has ruled out a move to the French capital.
"PSG already have plenty of central defenders. Maybe he can play at No.10, they already play Marquinhos at No.6. But if
Koulibaly leaves [Napoli], he will not come to PSG. His transfer could cost €100m (£87.5m)," Bruno Satin told Canal+.

Dembele Celtic claim
Moussa Dembele claims he would have stayed at Celtic if a move to Lyon had not been possible.
“It’s a club with a great history, there was a project that interested me,” he told Telefoot.

“[For me] it was Lyon or I [would have] stayed at Celtic.”

Harry Redknapp on Tottenham deals
Harry Redknapp insists Mauricio Pochettino didn’t want any players during the transfer window.
“[Pochettino] didn’t want any players - I know that for a fact,” he said.
“He was happy with his squad. He feels he’s got enough, he can juggle around, Son can play through the middle.
“[You know for a fact?] Yes. Didn’t want anybody. He’s happy with his squad and he’s proven himself right. He’s bang
[up the top of the table] there still.”

Luis Suarez on Coutinho struggles
Luis Suarez has opened up on why Philippe Coutinho is struggling at Barcelona.
"Because of the relationship I have with Philippe, I tried to help and support him at all times," he said. "I always saw
him with the best possible predisposition, with joy in training.
"Then, at the time of playing, some concentrate more than others, it can happen by being angry or sad.
"He should not train or go out on the field thinking that he is the most expensive player in Barcelona’s history, but keep
improving day by day with the players he has around."

Solskjaer transfer claim
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer claims he will have a big impact on Manchester United’s transfer business this summer.
The interim boss is in charge until the end of the season but insists he will be asked about summer deals.
Solskjaer said: "I’ve got to know the players' potential, how far they are from that and how they can build or rebuild —
and put my views into the club.
"How we want to look in a year or two, what kind of players we need and want.
"It is about what kind of personality to look for. It’s about finding players with the Man United identity and DNA.”

Werner Liverpool warning
Timo Werner has been warned about joining Liverpool from RB Leipzig after links in the January transfer window.
"Keita was an outstanding player here, but he's still struggling in Liverpool," Leipzig boss Ralf Rangnick said.
"So far, he's not the player there that he was here. The surroundings must be right for Timo. That's the case here."
Werner was linked with Jurgen Klopp’ side last month and is believed to be on their radar for the summer.
Chelsea told to sell Hazard
Chelsea have been told they need to sell Eden Hazard to change the the dynamic in the dressing room - by Stan Collymore.
“Eden Hazard needs to leave Stamford Bridge - to rid Chelsea of its toxic dressing room,” he wrote in his Daily Mirror
column.
“Nothing against the Belgian, who I rate one of the best in the world, but it’s time for the club to cash in.
“Losing a player like Hazard would leave a massive hole. But £150million is good business for a 27-year-old. He’s a
wonderful talent but I’ve got a nagging feeling he’s part of the problems at the club.
“Jose Mourinho was lukewarm towards him, Antonio Conte wasn’t overly keen, and now he is part of a crew whose bottle
Maurizio Sarri has questioned in the last few weeks.
“I have to say that while Hazard would be the stand-out name, I could see Chelsea ridding themselves of a few more so-
called big-hitters.”
