Chelsea are in discussions with PSG over a loan deal for left back Layvin Kurzawa.
Thomas Tuchel is looking to bolster his defensive options with Ben Chilwell now set to miss the rest of the season with the knee injury he picked up playing n the Champions League against Juventus.
Hopes that Emerson Palmieiri could be recalled from his loan spell wit Lyon have been dashed and one of the club’s top transfer targets, Lucas Digne, moved from Everton to Aston Villa instead.
Kurzawa, who in the past has been linked with a move to Arsenal, has played 153 games for the Paris club since joining them from Monaco in 2015.
However, this season he has fallen out of favour under Mauricio Pochettino, and has not made one appearance in the league.
He is a full French international with 13 caps and one goal to his name for Les Bleus.
Negotiations between the two clubs are reported to be at an early stage.
