PSG are targeting moves for a pair of reported Manchester United targets, while Maurizio Sarri wants to keep four Chelsea stars, according to Tuesday’s papers.

 

EURO GIANTS MONITOR ENGLAND INTERNATIONAL

Paris Saint-Germain are keeping a close eye on the situation surrounding Tottenham defender Danny Rose, it have been claimed.

Reports in France (via The Sun) suggest that Rose has emerged as a target for new PSG boss Thomas Tuchel this summer.

The former Dortmund boss is eyeing a replacement for Yuri Berchiche, who left the club to secure a move to Athletic Bilbao earlier in July.

The England international was a target for both Manchester club’s last year, before a knee injury halted his progress.

Then followed the interview where Rose was critical of Tottenham’s transfer policy and wage structure, while in December it was reported that Spurs had put a £50m price tag on him.

The London Evening Standard claimed in April that Jose Mourinho could return for Rose this summer as he looks to solve his left-back issues long term.

Borussia Dortmund’s impressive full-back Raphael Guerrero and Alex Sandro of Juventus have also been put on PSG’s shortlist, the report claims.

Duncan Castles of the Times recently stated that United had agreed terms with Sandro over a summer move.

However, it is also believed that Juve have slapped a €60m price tag on the Brazilian.
