Paris Saint-Germain consider move for Southampton midfielder Mario Lemina?

Southampton midfielder Mario Lemina has reportedly emerged as a surprise transfer target for Paris Saint-Germain.

The Saints paid just over £18m to sign Lemina from Juventus before the start of the 2017-18 campaign, and the Gabon international has gone on to make 40 appearances in the Premier League.

The 25-year-old is likely to be regarded as a key man under new boss Ralph Hasenhuttl, but according to The Sun, PSG may be prepared to tempt the south coast outfit into a sale.

The report claims that the French giants have identified a number of potential replacements for the outgoing Adrien Rabiot, but Lemina could represent the best value for money due to the club needing to improve their standing with FFP.

PSG are allegedly willing to pay in the region of £30m for Lemina, who still has over three-and-a-half years remaining on his contract.
