Chelsea and Manchester City in race for PSG's star midfielder

According to various reports, Blaise Matuidi has not yet agreed a contract extension with Paris Saint Germain, which has alerted many top clubs.

Blaise Matuidi is in the last year of his contract, and if he does not agree on a contract with PSG before January, he would be free to sign a pre-contract agreement with any other club and leave for free in the summer.

Chelsea and Manchester City are at the head of the race to sign the star midfielder and his wage demands would not be a problem as both clubs are not averse to paying high salaries to players they need.

Matuidi has been in fine form, and was instrumental in helping PSG win the league title last season. Also, he was the player who played the most number of games for the club last season. So, the only hindrance to sign a new contract with PSG is wage demands.

Of course, the chances are that Matuidi would end up signing an extension with PSG, but if not, Chelsea and Manchester City will be ready to pounce for the star.
