PSG keeping tabs on Chelsea target as they look to replace Wolves-bound Pablo Sarabia - Reports

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are keeping tabs on Chelsea target Marcus Thuram as Pablo Sarabia looks set to join Wolverhampton Wanderers on a free transfer.

Sarabia has found it tough to get regular game time in the French capital this season. While he has made 19 appearances for Christophe Galtier's team this term, he has started only six.

As the defending French champions already have the likes of Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappe in their ranks, Sarabia isn't expected to be a guaranteed started.

The player, though, bagged 21 goals and ten assists in 45 games on loan at Sporting CP last season. He's now on the verge of a move to Wolves and reunite with Julien Lopetegui to make a career resurgence. To replace the outgoing attacker, the Parisians have set their sights on France's 2022 FIFA World Cup star Marcus Thuram.
