Thomas Tuchel has reportedly opened talks with Paris Saint-Germain ahead of a move to the Parc des Princes in the summer.
A number of names have been linked with the Ligue 1 giants in recent months - including Luis Enrique, Jose Mourinho and Zinedine Zidane - as the French club allegedly look to find a replacement for Unai Emery.
However, according to L'Equipe, PSG are pressing ahead with plans to try to appoint Tuchel, who is available after leaving his role at Borussia Dortmund in May.
The report has suggested that a deal could have already been reached with the 44-year-old, who is also said to be under consideration by Chelsea and Arsenal.
Tuchel is yet to manage outside of Germany, with 160 victories and 77 draws coming from 324 matches at Augsburg, Mainz 05 and Dortmund respectively.
