Paris Saint-Germain’s coach Laurent Blanc made a rather shocking statement to L’Equipe regarding Thiago Motta’s situation at the club.

“We are very much aware of Thiago Motta’s position, thsi has been clearly exposed. Likewise, the club’s position has also been revealed and it’s clear that these two positions are incompatible. Thiago won’t play [against Benfica] because he isn’t in the best position to play.”

These words will certainly add fuel to the speculation fire surrounding Thiago Motta’s future.
