In recent developments, Paris Saint-Germain the Ligue 1 side has opened formal talks with Aston Villa the Premier League side about signing Lucas Digne.
The French club plans to finalise a deal promptly by activating his €10 million release clause.
PSG wants him as their initial summer signing after Monaco the Ligue 1 outfit lost Youri Tielemans in a similar move.
Information suggest Aston Villa may follow the same club’s path.
Both moves involved leveraging lower release fees instead of large transfer bids.
PSG officials are pushing for a rapid agreement this week.
