Every GK wants to feel loved
Barcelona goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen has admitted that he will seek out a new club in the summer due to a lack of playing time, but harbours no ill will against his club and has urged Matthijs de Ligt to make a move to Camp Nou. Cillessen was signed from Ajax in 2016 but has been limited to only 28 La Liga appearances with the club due to Marc-Andre ter Stegen being preferred as the club’s first-choice shot-stopper.

Wenger is bound to give any offer serious thought. He could well welcome the challenge to end Paris Saint-Germain’s dominance of the domestic game in France - but PSG are themselves keen to offer Wenger a key role. They played Rennes in the French Cup final on Saturday night and are already Ligue 1 champions. However, manager Thomas Tuchel is under pressure after persistent failure in the Champions League. This season they squandered a first leg win at Manchester United in the last 16 and went out in dramatic fashion in the reverse fixture to a controversial penalty, but that may not be enough to save Tuchel his job. Wenger has a close working relationship with the Qatari owners of PSG. Again, a role of general manager would be on the agenda should Tuchel leave.
