Paris Saint-Germain sit at the summit of Ligue 1, having scored 21 goals in their opening seven matches. Yet beneath the veneer of goal-gluttony and a star-studded team, there are significant divisions in the squad.

The owner of PSG, Nasser Al-Khelaifa, instructed an intermediary to offer Edinson Cavani an improved contract in exchange for allowing Neymar to take penalties.

According to El País, Al-Khelaifa had offered the Uruguayan forward one million euros if he finishes the season as the PSG’s leading goal-scorer in Ligue 1.
