Dani Alves is reportedly set to turn his back on a deal to join Manchester City - and head to Paris Saint-Germain instead.

Free agent Alves, who left Juventus earlier this summer, was in line to link up with his former boss Pep Guardiola at City later this month.

But according to Le10Sport, PSG have made a late bid to Alves which has turned his head.

PSG’s new sporting director, Antero Henrique, reportedly held secret negotiations with Alves and his representatives on Saturday.

The veteran full-back is now said to be ready to sign a deal at the Parc des Princes this week, which could lead to Serge Aurier be allowed to leave.
