Paris Saint-Germain are looking to strengthen in the summer, and they reportedly have a Napoli player in their sights.

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly interested in bringing in Napoli's South Korean defender Kim Min-Jae in the summer transfer window. 

The 26-year-old only recently joined Napoli last summer from Fenerbahce, but he has been immense in defence for the Partenopei, replacing Kalidou Koulibaly, who left for Chelsea.

PSG want Kim 

PSG are registering interest in Napoli's South International Kim Min-Jae according to Foot Mercato.

The Parisians are famously in the market for a centre-back with Sergio Ramos ageing and running out on his deal and Presnel Kimpembe struggling with injury.

Milan Skriniar, who is running down his contract with Inter, is set to join PSG on a free transfer in the summer, but the Parisians, who were forced to use youth players in defence in their Champions League clash against Bayern Munich due to injuries, are said to want more.  

Although Kim recently joined Napoli, his contract is said to include a special release clause that makes him available for €53 million from July 1 to July 15.

Other PSG targets

The same report suggests that although Kim is at the top of their list, PSG have several other options lined up in the position that they look to strengthen in the summer.  

21-year-old Sporting Lisbon centre-back Goncalo Inacio is said to also be on their radar, as is Villarreal's Pau Torres, both players tied to release clauses greater than €40 million.
