PSG’s Spanish goalkeeper Sergio Rico, victim of a very serious horse riding accident which almost cost him his life at the end of May 2023, will not be retained by Paris Saint-Germain, France Bleu Paris learned on Friday June 28 from from the player’s entourage.
The man who was the third goalkeeper of the capital club at the time of his accident is under contract until June 30. His contract will not be extended by PSG for next season.
