Pastore considering PSG future
Unai Emery could not find room for Javier Pastore in his Paris Saint-Germain XI on Sunday and the Argentine may be forced to leave.
Javier Pastore is considering his Paris Saint-Germain future after being left out of the starting XI again away to Monaco on Sunday.
The 28-year-old playmaker has managed just four starts in Ligue 1 this season and finds himself struggling for game time in a squad that also contains Julian Draxler.
Pastore claimed earlier this month he will not seek a move away from Parc des Princes to boost his hopes of being selected by Argentina for the World Cup in Russia next year.
But the former Palermo man, who was introduced in the 82nd minute of a 2-1 win over the reigning champions at Stade Louis II, now appears to be weighing up the prospect of a transfer away from the French capital.

"I was disappointed," he was quoted as saying by L'Equipe.
"I always want to play, I do not play important matches like in the Champions League or today against Monaco. It was more or less like that all year long.
"I have already said it, I'm going to think about my future but the important thing is to try to help the team during the ten minutes that I enter the field."
