Icardi and Wijnaldum are among the players who can leave the club

It is time to get to work at Paris Saint-Germain. With the two big issues resolved -- replacing Mauricio Pochettino with Christophe Galtier and renewing Kylian Mbappe -- it is now time to start the clean-up.

Up to 11 players will be allowed to leave the club this summer as new coach Galtier looks to put his stamp on the French champions.

Icardi, Wijnaldum, Pereira, Diallo, Draxler, Kehrer, Ander Herrera, Paredes, Kurzawa, Gueye and Dina Ebimbe are not in the boss' plans.

New sporting director Luis Campos, who replaced Leanardo, has also not included them in his plans for the future. Some have already been informed, per Le Parisien.

Striker Icardi has never found himself in Paris, while Draxler's role has reduced despite renewing until 2024 in 2021. Wijnaldum, who joined PSG instead of Barça, had a difficult first season in France.

PSG need to make room for signings. After signing Vitinha and making Nuno Mendes' loan permanent, they are now after Renato Sanches.

The squad is too big. Rafinha and Sarabia will also be allowed to leave as they return from loans, while reports suggest they will even listen to offers for Neymar.
