Ex-Inter Brazilian Maxwell Andrade may have retired from the Seleção but he is not just yet ready to retire entirely according to RMC.
“I’d be happy to extend,” said 33 year-old Mr. Consistent. “But wse have to see if the club agrees. I am happy here and I would keep playing in this team next season. If PSG wants I am ready to sign.”

Author’s note: In case he does not re-sign, I would not mind AT ALL to see Maxwell back at Inter. Even at 33, he has stayed one of the best left-backs in the world, and Mancini knows the player well. Very versatile, and capable with and without the ball, he’s also a great man on & off the field. He still has several years of European football left in him, and I haven’t seen a reason to believe otherwise just yet. The issue would be the player’s will, his age, and his relatively high €2.5 million salary.
Again, this is just me wishfully thinking about a player I’ve always respected and rated very highly. He’s been enjoying a(nother) great season at PSG, with a goal and three assists in 16 appearances. He has kept promising youngster Lucas Digne out of the starting lineup for a while, and may yet continue to do so. Could be a short-term, experience, calm and collected quick-fix towards a defense that is desperately in need of a player like him. Maybe he could convince Zlatan to join us again? He’s a great friend of the Swede, having played with him at Ajax, Inter, Barca, and now PSG. I’m joking, and it’s probably Mercatoitis that’s gotten into me. Anyway, I’ll get to the other news and leave you with those thoughts.
Maxwell is Ibra’s true love.
salary to high so no to him
I saw Maxwell play the game Barcelona-PSG and he played superbly, not once a single mistake. Intelligent runs, passes, crosses, marking and positioning. The only one in PSG’s defence that game who played well, the others van der Wiel, Luiz and Silva played almost as bad and naive as the Inter defence have since Mourinhos departure. Best players from that game i PSG was Veratti, Maxwell and Lucas.
I would love to have him back, but that would mean that Raiola makes a comeback in Inter as well…
he’s got one or two more years. doesn’t make sense unless if we get him for free and he excepts low salary
He has Raiola as his agent, and we all know what that means that the salary would still be high.
And he won’t stop working with Raiola as both them together with Zlatan have been together since their time in Ajax from where they have had long successful careers together. Him and Zlatan living together in is Maxwells appartment, getting bank accounts together and eating in Raiolas fast food restaurant together every day for free.
Well said, I never liked Mino…
Mhm, agreed.
