ANGEL DI MARIA'S seven-year spell at Paris Saint-Germain will reportedly come to an end this summer.

The Manchester United flop is out of contract at PSG at the end of the season, with the club unlikely to trigger the option for Di Maria to stay for another year.

French outlet RMC Sport claim chiefs at the club will green-light Di Maria's departure come the end of the campaign.

That frees up space to make a move for another out of contract winger – Ousmane Dembele.

Dembele's future has been the subject of constant speculation in recent months, with the Frenchman expected to leave Barcelona when his contract expires in the summer.

And PSG are claimed to have 'started discussions' with Dembele's entourage.

Although the French giants will face stiff competition from a number of Premier League clubs for Dembele's signature.

The 24-year-old has been linked with the likes of Manchester United and Newcastle in recent weeks.

However RMC state a 'turnaround' regarding Di Maria, 34, is still possible, with a final decision not yet made on whether he will leave at the start of the next transfer window.

The player himself is reportedly keen to move on this summer and is eyeing an emotional return to former club Benfica.

ARSENAL could revive their transfer pursuit of Houssem Aouar and finally land the long-term target, according to reports.

The Gunners have been linked with the Lyon midfielder for a number of years, especially when Mesut Ozil's future was unclear.

But after speculation cooled amid Martin Odegaard's arrival and Emile Smith Rowe's rise, a move may be back on.

Aouar's contract at Lyon expires in June 2023 – but he shows no signs of penning an extension despite joining the club way back in 2009 aged 11.

And the fact the 23-year-old Frenchman changed agents to IMC Stellar Sports at the beginning of this year further implies he will be packing his bags.

Now Calciomercarto report the Gunners are prepared to go back in for Aouar in the summer to complete a cut-price deal.

Arsenal tried to sign the one-cap France international last summer and did hold talks with his representatives.

Aouar, who was also previously linked with Liverpool, was still keen to secure a transfer to the Emirates even when a deal fell through.

Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas' demands were too high – although he will likely be more open to negotiation considering his star's contract situation.

The report adds Italy could be an alternative destination with Juventus and Inter Milan said to be interested.

PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN have reportedly opened shock talks with Antonio Conte over a summer switch from Tottenham to France.

The Italian gaffer has just one year left on his deal in North London having signed an 18-month contract in November.

Following last month's away defeat at Burnley, the 52-year-old hinted at quitting the club after just four months in charge.

Though he later backtracked on his comments as he declared he is always too emotional following a loss.

And despite Rio Ferdinand predicting Conte will depart at the end of the season, there is no suggestion the former Chelsea boss will leave Spurs.

However, Calciomercato has stated that the former Inter Milan manager IS in discussions to quit in the near future.

They state that Les Parisiens are in negotiations with Conte as they look to replace Mauricio Pochettino, who is facing the sack following their Champions League exit at the hands of Real Madrid.

The Italian news outlets adds that a clause in Conte's contract allows him to leave Tottenham.

It has been said that top-four chasing Tottenham are powerless to keep Conte beyond the summer should he decide to walk away.

The reports also suggests that Conte is keen on the move to Parc des Princes, but it appears unlikely it will happen.

AC MILAN are interested in signing Liverpool ace Divock Origi this summer, according to reports.

The Belgian's Anfield contract is set to expire, prompting plenty of interest.

Origi is believed to have plenty of potential suitors around the Premier League.

But according to Calciomercato, the striker would prefer a move to Milan.

He faced off with the Italian giants in the Champions League earlier this season, impressing them with his performances.

The 26-year-old grabbed an assist in Liverpool's 3-2 Anfield win over Milan in September, before scoring against them in the 2-1 December triumph at San Siro.

Milan technical director Paolo Maldini is believed to be a big fan of the forward.

Origi, who has been at Liverpool since 2014, shot to prominence towards the end of the 2018-19 season by scoring a series of important goals.

He grabbed big late winners against Everton and Newcastle, before notching legendary goals against Barcelona and Tottenham in the Champions League.

This stunning form earned Origi a new four-year contract – although didn't secure him much playing time.

WEST HAM flop Sebastien Haller is reportedly wanted by Italian champions Inter Milan after turning his career around at Ajax.

Haller has scored 45 goals and notched 16 assists in 57 games for the Dutch champions.

The Ivory Coast international has turned his career around after his £45million disaster in East London.

He managed to net 14 times in 54 appearances for the Hammers and was swiftly shipped off to Ajax at the start of last year.

But his return to form at the Amsterdam-based club has impressed Serie A champions Inter, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Ajax are looking to make a profit on Haller by asking Inter to purchase their striker for £35m.

But the Nerazzurri at this point in time are unwilling to meet it.

On his failed West Ham career, Haller said: "I was just unlucky with a coach (David Moyes) who had a different idea.

"My style of play just didn’t fit (Moyes’) system. Accordingly, I was aware that I had no prospects and would therefore hardly be used.

BORUSSIA DORTMUND superstar Erling Haaland is now subject to a whopping €365million (£306m) mega transfer to Manchester City.

That is according to Bild, who report that City are looking to splash some serious cash to win the intense bidding war over Haaland's signature this summer.

The star striker is reportedly set to be available for a bargain €75m, which is around £64m, however that could go up to €85m (£71m).

The German publication adds that the Norway international is set for a €200m (£168m) wage bill as well as a €30m (£25m) signing on fee.

Finally, there is the matter of the agent fees and the 21-year-old's representative Mino Raiola is looking at a €50m (£42m) pay day.

The staggering total led to Dortmund's chief advisor and club legend Matthias Sammer claiming that he passed out.

Sammer told Amazon Prime: “The numbers – I had whiplash! I have passed out…"

City pose as favourites to land Haaland in the summer transfer window but Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United and Juventus have also been linked.

However, SunSport understand the Norwegian talisman is expected to ask for a release clause to be written into his contract if he moves this summer.

Raiola is likely to request a knockdown clause be inserted on his asking price, similar to the current one at Dortmund, if he does move to a new club.

Former Arsenal loanee Dani Ceballos could also leave as well as forgotten man Jesus Vallejo.

Those five stars could make way to fund a move for Monaco star Aurelien Tchouameni.

The France international has been a standout star for the Ligue 1 outfit despite Monaco having a poor domestic and European campaign.

Should Hazard become available, he wouldn't be short of suitors, especially in England.

TOTTENHAM could reignite their pursuit of Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez in the summer, according to reports.

The Lilywhites were one of several clubs interested in bringing him in prior to the 2021/22 campaign.

This was because Spurs bosses feared Harry Kane would be leaving following Manchester City's constant pursuit of the England captain.

Tielemans was voted as the club’s player of the season last campaign having scored a stunning winning goal at Wembley as Leicester won their first ever FA Cup trophy versus Chelsea.
