Paris Saint Germain Coach Thomas Tuchel has made Bayern Munich defender Jerome Boateng as his number one target for the summer transfer window. 

The defender has already expressed his interest in potentially leaving the Allianz Arena this summer, and the club is willing to let him go if the right offer comes across the table.

Bayern’s reported €50-60 million valuation of the center back is said to be a bit steep for the clubs that were initially interested in him, but French giants Paris Saint-Germain now appear to be ready and willing to splash the cash for him.

Boateng’s current contract with Bayern runs through 2021, which is why the club doesn’t want to let him go for anything under €50m.
