The mother and girlfriend of Ajax defender Matthijs de Ligt have reportedly been house-hunting in Paris this week.
De Ligt is widely expected to leave the Dutch giants in the coming weeks, having attracted interest from a number of top European clubs.
Barcelona have long been regarded as the frontrunners for the 19-year-old's signature, although Paris Saint-Germain have now entered the race for the Netherlands international.
According to De Telegraaf, it appears increasingly likely that De Ligt will make the switch to Parc des Princes after his mother and girlfriend travelled to France's capital.
The report claims that the pair were assessing possible houses for the youngster should he decide to pen a long-term deal at the Ligue 1 champions.
Barcelona are said to have accepted that De Ligt will not be moving to Camp Nou.
