Wealthy Ligue 1 side Monaco are firmly in the running to sign Paris Saint-Germain defender Mamadou Sakho, who is tipped to leave the Parc des Princes this summer.

Sakho has grown concerned about the competition for a first team spot at PSG and is thought to have decided to quit the club if the right offer comes along.

 


AC Milan and Liverpool are known to be firm fans of the 23-year-old centre-back but, according to Le Parisien, Monaco are also very much in the mix and Sakho is keen to consider joining Claudio Ranieri's men.

The ball is now very firmly in the court of Sakho's suitors, as he waits to see what concrete options materialise.

The defender has not ruled out remaining with PSG for the forthcoming campaign and then exiting on a free transfer next summer, when he will be out of contract.

Sakho featured 27 times in Ligue 1 last season as PSG won the French crown.

He is concerned for his spot in France's national team ahead of the 2014 World Cup if he mainly warms the bench this term though.
