Paris Saint-Germain are on the verge of signing Roma defender Alessandro Florenzi on a season-long loan deal with an option to buy, reports Gianluca Di Marzio.
The Ligue 1 champions were in talks with Arsenal to sign Hector Bellerin but have moved for Florenzi after the Gunners rejected their loan proposal.
Arsenal were willing to sell Bellerin in order to top up their transfer kitty but a loan move was never considered by the Premier League outfit.
PSG have spent the summer looking for a new right-back after Thomas Meunier joined Borussia Dortmund on a free transfer.
Florenzi spent the second half of last season on loan at Valencia after being deemed surplus to requirements at Roma.
The Italy international made 26 league appearances for Roma and Valencia in 2019/20 and was sent off (once) as many times as he was directly involved in a goal.
