Despite being a favourite of club owner Nasser Al-Khelaifi, who has confirmed that the Swedish superstar will not be leaving Paris this summer, the forward is being forced to the peripheries of the team in the dressing room.

La Gazzetta dello Sport report that the growing influence of Brazil skipper Thiago Silva has made Zlatan a redundant figure in the dressing room.

Similarly, David Luiz is stepping up in prominence at Paris and is considered by certain club officials to be the new symbol of the club.

While Zlatan has been influential in PSG’s rise over the last few campaigns, the 33-year-old may well be reaching the end of the road at the Parc des Princes.

He still has one year left on his contract at the club, but Milan are just one club believed to be keen on the forward, with the Rossoneri entertaining the prospect of bringing the legendary striker back to the San Siro.

Could his weakening position in the PSG dressing room, in light of the increasing Brazilian contingent, mean that Zlatan is coming to the end of the road in Ligue 1?
