PSG Director Of Football Patrick Kluivert Is Working On Some Big Summer Deals

The January transfer window opened mere days a go but it seems some clubs, namely Paris Saint-Germain are already thinking about the summer window.

According to some reports in France, PSG director of football Patrick Kluivert, former player of Ajax, AC Milan and Barcelona amongst others, he is working on two massive summer deals.

He is targeting moves for Borussia Dortmund's Julian Weigl and Arsenal talisman Alexis Sanchez.

Weigl has only recently signed a new contract until 2021 but that's not deterred PSG, who would have no problem forking out a big sum for the 21-year old midfielder.

Their current main man in midfield, Thiago Motta, is out of contract in the summer and the French champions see Weigl as the ideal candidate to succeed him.

And they also want to sign Sanchez, who is stalling on a new contract at Arsenal.

He has been offered terms of £180,000 a week but wants £250,000 given how important he is to the Gunners.

Sanchez

The Chilean also wants assurances over whether Arsenal can compete at the very top level; something that has been very questionable in recent times. Sanchez is out of contract in 2018 but Arsenal would much prefer offloading him this summer before they face losing him for free.

It's fair to say that PSG appear to be preparing to do some very big things in the summer window.
