Tottenham defender Serge Aurier is still keen on leaving the North London side before the window closes this summer, with the 28-year-old linked with a move to PSG. He arrived a little over two years ago but has struggled to establish himself as a first-team star under Mauricio Pochettino.
With Tottenham looking to balance their books after a summer of heavy spending, the club are set to let go of a few stars this summer. They’ve already let Georges Kevin Nkoudou leave for Besiktas and reports have indicated that Victor Wanyama is set for a move to Club Brugge. But with the futures of Christian Eriksen and Danny Rose up in the air, Tottenham may have another issue.
ESPN has reported that full-back Serge Aurier is still keen on leaving the club, with the Frenchman struggling to get his name on Mauricio Pochettino’s team-sheet. So far the Argentine manager has preferred to use Kyle Walker-Peters as a right-back, with Juan Foyth his first-choice right-back once he is fit. Aurier so far has played no part in the club’s opening two games, not even making the bench for the clash against Manchester City.
The Times has further added that Aurier does have suitors in AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain, although neither side have made their move for the Frenchman yet. That might change before the European Transfer window slams shut, with the Serie A window does closing alongside the rest of Europe on September 2. It wasn't the case last season with the Italians following the Premier League, but ESPN has reported that the Serie A officials have chosen to change that this year.
