# Paris Saint-Germain weighing up move for Issa Diop

French giants Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly weighing up a move for West Ham defender Issa Diop, the [Daily Mail](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-6322457/PSG-target-West-Ham-defender-Issa-Diop-offer-50m.html) report.

The report suggests that Diop, who joined the Hammers in the summer from Toulouse in a deal worth £22 million, could be the subject of a £50 million offer from Paris Saint-Germain, as they look to bolster their defensive options.

The 21-year-old has been a regular for Manuel Pellegrini so far this season, with the French under-21 international putting in numerous dominant displays during West Ham’s recent fixtures.

After a solid display in the 3-1 win against Manchester United, Jose Mourinho labelled the Frenchman as a ‘monster’, and it seems that the youngster is catching the attention of various club’s around Europe.

Diop signed a five-year deal at the London Stadium in the summer, in what was a club record deal, however, the Hammers may well be tempted by Paris Saint-Germain’s reported offer, which could see them make a substantial profit on the defender.
