West Ham United centre-back Issa Diop emerges as a £50m transfer target for Paris Saint-Germain, according to a report.

West Ham United centre-back Issa Diop has reportedly emerged as a £50m transfer target for French champions Paris Saint-Germain.

Diop joined West Ham from Toulouse during the recent summer transfer window, and the 21-year-old has impressed for the Hammers since making the £22m switch.

According to the Daily Mail, Diop's early-season performances have not gone unnoticed, and PSG are preparing to make a £50m offer for the central defender.

Diop penned a five-year contract with West Ham upon his arrival, but PSG are seemingly undeterred as they consider a huge offer to bring the France Under-21 international back to Ligue 1.

The centre-back has also had admiring glances from Manchester United this season, with Red Devils boss Jose Mourinho paying tribute to the youngster following last month's Premier League clash between the two teams.
