Paris Saint-Germain open transfer talks with Arsenal star

Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly made contact with the representative of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as they seek to lure the Arsenal forward to Parc des Princes during the summer.

The Gabon international has recently dismissed the speculation regarding his Gunners future but there are still doubts whether he would remain with the club beyond the current season.

The forward's current deal is due to expire in 17 months' time and his reluctance to pen a new contract could see him head through the exit door during the summer transfer window.

According to L'Equipe, Les Parisiens are keeping a close watch on the situation and they have made initial contact with Aubameyang's agent regarding a possible summer deal.

Aubameyang is keen on playing in the Champions League during the backend of his career and that remains far from certain with the Gunners next season.

Arsenal are currently 10 points off the top four in the Premier League but they can still qualify for the elite competition by winning the Europa League title this term.
