Sergio Ramos finally made his Paris Saint-Germain debut over the weekend in their 3-1 win over Saint-Etienne at the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard.

Ramos played 90 minutes alongside Marquinhos at the heart of PSG’s defence, winning five of his seven duels and completing 94.1 percent of the passes he attempted. Of the nine long passes he tried, seven were accurate.

Ramos himself was expectedly delighted to have gotten up and running in France, ending his long wait to debut.

“I really wanted to get back and start contributing.”

Real Madrid will reportedly sanction the sale of Eden Hazard if they receive an offer of £34m for the 30-year-old.

El Nacional reports that Real Madrid are willing to cut their losses and sanction a permanent exit for just £34m, with his deal due to expire in 2024.

The report claims that president Florentino Perez lost patience with Hazard ‘a long time ago’, and Newcastle United are the only club willing to take him on.

Hazard boasts just five goals and nine assists from 54 games in a Real Madrid shirt and missed the weekend’s win over Sevilla due to gastroenteritis.

Karim Benzema has been a leading light for Real Madrid since Cristiano Ronaldo moved to Juventus in 2018, but his dream of winning the Ballon d’Or will not come to fruition this year.

Many believed that this was his year to win the accolade, with former Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane voicing his opinion recently.

“Karim Benzema deserves the Ballon d’Or, simply because right now he is ahead of the rest,” Zidane said in an interview with Telefoot.

Pulisic has been tipped to complete a move away from Chelsea in 2022, with Barcelona and Liverpool both linked with a swoop.

However, El Nacional claims that Chelsea do not wish to sell to a direct domestic rival, seemingly handing Barcelona a boost in their pursuit of the American.

La Blaugrana’s financial issues may end up presenting a roadblock in any deal, though, as the report adds that Chelsea will not sanction a sale for anything less than €50m (£42.2m) in straight cash.

Paris Saint-Germain are understood to have met with Zinedine Zidane in a bid to make the 49-year-old their new coach.

As Le Parisien report, at that meeting from PSG’s side were sporting director Leonardo and Jean-Claude Blanc, the club’s general manager and a good friend of Zidane’s.

The idea that’s been mooted is that Zidane – unwilling to break his sabbatical – would take the reins at the Parc des Princes next summer.

Erling Haaland is one of the most sought-after strikers around and his future remains uncertain, with several European powerhouses being interested in acquiring his services next summer.

Meanwhile, Dortmund are seen as title contenders in the Bundesliga this season as they are sitting second in the table, just one point behind Bayern Munich, but their struggles in Europe could affect Haaland’s future.

Spanish giants Real Madrid have reportedly identified Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount as a transfer target.

The England international is said to be unhappy with the Blues’ unwillingness to improve his contract terms, leading to rumours linking him with a move away from Stamford Bridge.

According to Fichajes, Los Blancos have now become the latest side to declare their interest in Mount, who has reportedly caught the eyes of Manchester City and German champions Bayern Munich.
