Spanish media broke the story that Mays refused to
Paris Saint Germain
(The 35-year-old Argentine footballer is due to complete his contract this summer, which means that he will leave if he fails to get his money's worth, and will be up for grabs by all the major giants.
Before the World Cup last year, it was rumored that Mays agreed to extend his contract with PSG for one more year, but things changed later. The Ligue 1 rich club was restricted by the Fair Financial Regulations, which required players to take a 30% pay cut, so the club hoped that Mays would ride out the hard times together with the club, but the goal scorer refused and the contract extension talks were stalled.
In fact, even though he is not young, he still maintains a high level of form. He scored 17 goals and 16 assists in 28 appearances for PSG this season, helped Argentina win the World Cup last December, and was elected as the World Footballer of the Year, so there is no reason for him to accept a reduction in wages.
It has been reported that there are already a lot of soccer clubs eyeing on Mays, including his parent club Barcelona and USL team International MIAMI. However, Barcelona's financial situation is not good enough to pay for the labor of Mays, who has no intention of leaving the European soccer world, and has little chance of making a living in the U.S. game.
PSG aside, the European giants capable of signing Mays would probably have to be
Chelsea (car brand)
Manchester City football club
Bayern
München or Munich, capital of Bavaria, Germany
