Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has no intention of leaving Paris Saint-Germain this summer, according to his father, Badri Kvaratskhelia.

Marseille head coach Habib Beye has issued a public warning to Arsenal loanee Ethan Nwaneri, demanding a significant improvement in the teenager's "day-to-day commitment".
