PSG interested in Torino defender

PSG interested in Torino defender

PSG are interested in signing Nicolas Nkoulou of Torino, according to Tuttosport.
 
The Parisian side is looking for a fourth defender, one to flank Thiago Silva, Marquinhos and Presnel Kimpembe in case there’s an injury.
 
The Ligue 1 leaders will be competing on numerous fronts this season, with a hot Champions League game coming up against Real Madrid.
 
Nkoulou was a star at Marseille for a while, but his form seemed to dip at Lyon, enabling Torino to snag him on a cheap season-long loan. He has massively bounced back this season.
 
The 27-year-old is seen as an untouchable in Turin, however, and the Granata have no intention of letting the Cameroon international go. They have the right to pick up his option at €3.5 million, something which PSG can do nothing about.  
 
Antero Henrique is known to be enthusiastic, however, and PSG have bigger financial means to bring to bear.
