Chelsea set Malo Gusto price after PSG interest

Chelsea have reportedly set a staggering price tag for Malo Gusto after transfer interest from Paris Saint-Germain.

Gusto has been the Blues' backup right-back behind Reece James, but his future is uncertain after the recent arrival of Marco Palestra.

The Frenchman has already been linked with a move to Manchester City to reunite with former Blues manager Enzo Maresca.

Meanwhile, a return to Ligue 1 has now emerged as a possibility with PSG having joined the pursuit of the former Lyon right-back.

Gusto is said to welcome a possible return to France, but Chelsea are expected to hold out for a premium fee to sanction his summer sale.

PSG will reportedly need to cough up around £75 million to prise the 23-year-old away from the west London giants in the next few weeks.

It appears unlikely that Les Parisiens will make such a huge outlay, given they only view Gusto as a backup for Achraf Hakimi next term.
