Mario Lemina is reportedly a target for French giants PSG.
The Sun have revealed that Saints’ midfielder has made the Ligue 1 side’s five-man shortlist and are keen to test Ralph Hasenhuttl’s resolve with a bid in January.
It’s being said that PSG are willing to pay up to £30m to acquire Lemina’s services as they try to comply with Financial Fair Play.
Saints signed the Gabon international from Juventus in 2017 for £15m and would double the fee they paid for him if they decided to sell.
Lemina has stood out this season as a key player and is thought highly of by Hasenhuttl.
The 25-year-old was absent for the Arsenal win after picking up an injury the day before the match.
However, Hasenhuttl has stated he would like to make changes to his squad in January and needs to ship players out in order to bring new ones in.
