Chelsea winger Eden Hazard and Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez are on Paris Saint-Germain’s shortlist of targets should they fail to snare Antoine Griezmann away from Atletico Madrid this summer, it has been claimed.
It has been suggested that the Parisians have opened talks with the Atletico Madrid forward’s representatives over the last few days, and are hoping to entice the Frenchman to return to France.
However, Atletico Madrid are expected to fight tooth and nail to keep their star player at the Vicente Calderon and PSG are not the only big club after the signature of the France international.
PSG are aware that signing Griezmann will take some doing this summer, but they have their contingency plans ready and according to French sports daily L’Equipe, the club are planning to raid the Premier League if they fail to attract the Frenchman.
It has been claimed Chelsea winger Hazard and Arsenal talisman Sanchez are the targets the club would pursue should they fail in their attempts to entice Griezmann out of Atletico Madrid.

It is claimed PSG have already sounded out both Hazard's and Sanchez's representatives.
A lack of Champions League football could provoke Hazard to consider an offer from PSG and Sanchez is reported to be frustrated with Arsenal’s failure to challenge for top honours in England or in Europe.
Both Chelsea and Arsenal are likely however to look to thwart any attempt from PSG to sign their star players this summer.
