PSG star Serge Aurier’s impressive performance on the pitch
Manchester United were linked with Aurier earlier this month, with Tottenham and Chelsea also credited with an interest.
The Ivory Coast international looks likely to leave the Parc des Princes, particularly given PSG’s need to balance the books following their £200million swoop for Neymar from La Liga side Barcelona.
And French website Get French Football say Aurier remains determined to link up with close friend Paul Pogba at Old Trafford.
However, the Ligue 1 giants would rather sell him to Tottenham instead.

It is said the north London side’s offer for Aurier exceeds what United are prepared to pay the French side.
PSG director Pini Zahavi is supposedly close friends with Tottenham chief Daniel Levy and, as a result, the 24-year-old looks likelier to move to Mauricio Pochettino’s team.
The France international supposedly told the club’s hierarchy to consider a move for Aurier this summer.

However, as it stands, Tottenham’s need for the player is greater.
Spurs sold Kyle Walker to Manchester City for £50million earlier this summer.
And, though Kyle Walker-Peters has blossomed since, Tottenham still need a more experienced replacement.
Manchester United, meanwhile, are sorted at right-back with Antonio Valencia and Matteo Darmian capable of playing in that position.
