Where next for Ben Arfa? Enigmatic winger confirms PSG departure

Hatem Ben Arfa has confirmed that he will be leaving Paris Saint-Germain when his contract expires this summer.

The 31-year-old earned a move to the French capital on the back of a stunning one-season spell at Nice in 2015-16 which saw him net 17 times in Ligue 1.

He has, however, struggled to make a similar impact at Parc des Princes, with fierce competition for places often leaving him on the fringes of the fold.

Ben Arfa has been frozen out completely by Unai Emery this season, failing to make a single appearance, and that has led to him being ushered towards the exits.
