PSG remained undefeated in matchday six of Ligue 1, comfortably beating Nantes 0-3 and their only concern is Olympique Marseille, who are following them with the same 16 points.
And that tranquility in sports allows him to take the time to solve administrative problems, such as the departure of players who, ultimately, will not count for coach Christophe Galtier.
And the turn has been for Rafinha Alcántara, who was officially presented by the Qatari club Al-Arabi, with whom he signed a contract for two seasons.
The transfer would have been free, since the priority was to get rid of the salary of 4.5 million euros per year, now that the pressure for the ‘financial fair play’ of UEFA is overwhelming. Without having scored any goals or consolidated with two coaches, it seems they will miss little: “a player who will not leave a great memory in the fans”, according to Le Parisien.

He is a player without prominence who bills a whopping 10 million euros per season, for which his departure is urgent. It is said that the Argentine would have met with David Beckham to try a transfer to Inter Miami of the MLS, but there are no confirmations for now. It is also expensive for them, although the media impact of him – and that of his wife Wanda – could tip the balance.
