Paris Saint-Germain are willing to sell one of their star midfielders, but only for a price of €100million, a report claims.

French outlet L’Equipe claims that the Parisiens no longer view reported Manchester United target Marco Verratti as indispensable.

As a result, they may be open to a summer sale, with United and Barcelona both linked with a possible summer move.

L’Equipe state that PSG chiefs are disappointed with Verratti’s performances in the Champions League, and could sell the Italian for the right price.

And according to a Don Balon report last week, Mourinho – who has made his intentions in strengthening United’s midfield clear this summer – has told the club’s board to take advantage of PSG’s European misery by offering Verratti a summer switch to Old Trafford.

The Italian star is represented by Mino Raiola, who was instrumental in the deals that brought Paul Pogba, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Henrikh Mkhitaryan to Manchester United in Mourinho’s first summer in charge.
