Both AC Milan and Real Madrid are interested in signing Tottenham right-back Serge Aurier.
The 28-year old Ivory Coast international’s current deal in North London expires in 2022, and could be available for as little as £11 million this summer.
Meanwhile, PSG are also keeping tabs on the player. He joined Spurs from the French champions in 2017, and he continues to have strong ties with the club and is in regular contact with their President Nasser Al-Khelaffi.
Moreover, PSG are now managed by Mauricio Pochettino, the man who brought him to North London in the first place.
Aurier has played 110 games for Spurs in all competitions, coring 8 goals, although he was not an automatic started either when Pochettino was in charge of the club, or under his successor Jose Mourinho., competing for the role first with Kieron Trippier, and more latterly Matt Doherty and youngster Japhet Tanganga.
Andy is an exiled English football fan living in Cyprus. He loves all sports but football is his abiding passion, and he still has dreams every now and then about scoring the winning goal in a Wembley Cup Final, even though his playing days are long gone. He follows most major leagues, across Europe at least, and has a favoured team in each. When he’s not watching, listening, reading or downloading podcasts about football, he spend his time worrying about his beloved Arsenal.
