Lallana linked with shock PSG move

Cape Town - Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana has emerged as a shock transfer target for Paris Saint-Germain, who are willing to pounce when he becomes a free agent at the end of the season.

Lallana has had a frustrating time with injuries and has struggled to force his way into Jurgen Klopp’s side this season, playing just 113 minutes of Premier League football.

The England international is due to fall out of contract at the end of the season, and although a decision has yet to be made on his future, there is a good chance he will not be getting a new one.

It means he will be available on a free transfer and there will be no shortage of clubs will to offer him a fresh start away from Anfield.

One such club is PSG and Lallana would no doubt jump at the chance to play in Paris for a couple of seasons and challenge for silverware.

The player is also said to have offers from clubs in China and the United States but a move to PSG is sure to win the day if the terms on offer are good enough.

Liverpool are also unlikely to stand in his way as they are keen to get him off the wage bill and use the money to fund their own signings in the summer.

One player that Liverpool are keen on is the Bournemouth winger Ryan Fraser, who will also be out of contract and available on a free transfer at the end of the current campaign.

However, the Scotland international is reported to be asking for £100 000 a week and the departure of Lallana would help fund a switch for the talented Cherries star.

Liverpool will also face strong competition to land Fraser as Arsenal are among the clubs interested and the winger will be in a strong position to organise a good deal for himself.
