Paris Saint-Germain are expecting to raise £70million in revenue to meet Financial Fair Play requirements.
The big spending French club met with UEFA auditors last month to explain their finances after signing Neymar for £198m and Kylian Mbappe for a potential £165m.
PSG expect to sell Angel Di Maria and Lucas Moura in January but will also look to attract new sponsorships from America plus TV deals.
With Premier League clubs spending over £1bn in the summer, PSG will hope to attract interest from English clubs, but Di Maria's failed spell at Manchester United and large wage demands is likely to count against him.
The Argentine briefly became a British record signing in 2014 after moving to Old Trafford from Real Madrid, but failed to settle in Manchester. In an effort to get out of the club, Di Maria failed to report to Louis van Gaal's squad for a pre-season tour and was soon sold.
Lucas turned down a number of Premier League clubs, including United, in order to make the move to Parc des Princes in 2012, but has since failed to fulfil the early promise that attracted Sir Alex Ferguson.
PSG are unlikely to get the required funds from clubs outside of the Premier League and may have to rely on new sponsorship deals and increased revenue from growing TV audiences.
A complex loan agreement with Monaco allowed them to bring Mbappe to the club this summer, but they are committed to paying the huge £165m sum at the end of the season.
