TOP STORY: PSG make de Ligt No. 1 target

According to reports at Sport, Paris Saint-Germain have made Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt their No. 1 transfer target this summer.

The 19-year-old has been linked with moves to Barcelona and Manchester United, but PSG now look set to open negotiations with the Dutch champions following talks in Doha between senior Parisian officials regarding the club's transfer strategy.

A €70 million fee is rumoured to be the minimum that Ajax would be willing to accept for their top defensive asset, but with so many of Europe's biggest sides in the race for the Netherlands international, that price is set to rise even further.

Defensive signings look set to make the bulk of PSG's transfer dealings this summer following a disappointing showing in the Champions League, and with captain Thiago Silva nearing his 35th birthday, manager Thomas Tuchel is keen to recruit a long-term replacement.

PAPER TALK (by James Capps) Real pull of out Felix deal to pursue Hazard move

Marca claims Real Madrid have ditched an attempt to sign Benfica wonderkid Joao Felix to fully focus on a move for Chelsea forward Eden Hazard.

Los Blancos were prepared to pay about €80m for the highly coveted 19-year-old, and also offered to loan Felix back to the Portuguese league champions next season.

But Benfica knocked back the bid, demanding Zinedine Zidane's side pay the full €120 million asking price. The impending arrival of Hazard means Real are well-stocked with attacking options, and it's believed that has also played a role in their decision to pull out of a deal.

News of Madrid's withdrawal from negotiations still leaves many of Europe's elite clubs in the hunt for Felix's signature. Manchester City, Juventus and Barcelona are all credited with an interest in the player, who is set to make his senior Portugal debut in the UEFA Nations League finals in June.

Coutinho earmarked as Hazard replacement

Chelsea have identified Barcelona winger Philippe Coutinho as the man they want to replace the outgoing Hazard -- providing they can avoid a looming transfer ban. Despite signing for Barca just 18 months ago for a whopping £142 million, Coutinho has already been deemed surplus to requirements following a disappointing spell at the Camp Nou, but that hasn't deterred Stamford Bridge bosses from pinpointing the former Liverpool man as the player to fill the Hazard void.

The prospect of a two-year transfer ban still hangs over the west Londoners, although Chelsea insist they are innocent, and are prepared to go the Court of Arbitration for Sport to clear their name.

Any such appeal is likely to delay an official ban, paving the way for a move for Brazil international Coutinho, regardless of whether manager Maurizio Sarri remains at the club.
