Real Madrid's Pepe says future not yet decided amid links to PSG move

MOSCOW -- Real Madrid defender Pepe has insisted he has yet to make a decision on his future, despite being strongly linked to a summer move to Paris Saint-Germain.

Pepe, 34, is out of contract at Real at the end of this month, with PSG linked with a free transfer move for the Portugal defender.

The centre-half is currently on international duty with the European champions in the Confederations Cup in Russia and, speaking ahead of Wednesday's encounter with the host nation in Moscow, Pepe said he will not consider his next move until after the tournament.

"My future is the national team," Pepe said. "I don't have a contract at the moment, but I just want to make the most of the national team and the chance to succeed in the Confederations Cup.

"We work towards these objectives to bring happiness to our people. Everyone is committed to taking the name of Portugal as far as we can."
