Paris Saint-Germain are plotting to bring in Alexis Sanchez next summer by offloading star striker Edinson Cavani.
Along with Manchester City, the French club tried to sign the Arsenal striker in the last transfer window.
And Le Parisien , the Paris-based paper very close to the club, reports they will return next year with the Chilean out of contract at the Emirates Stadium.
But after breaking the world transfer record on Neymar and also agreeing a deal for Kylian Mbappe, PSG will need to sell to try and balance the books for Financial Fair Play.

Le Parisien claims the Qatari-owned club are ready to sell top scorer Cavani to finance the deal.
The Uruguayan scored 47 goals last season but had an on-pitch row with Neymar over taking a penalty against Lyon last month.

Cavani tried to play down the spat on international duty this week.
He said: “These are thing you discuss in the locker room. Everything has a solution. It's all relaxed now.”
