European transfer news: Ben Brereton Diaz 'wanted by quartet' as PSG busy before deadline

Plenty of late transfer action in Europe as the clock ticks down with money bags Ligue 1 club Paris Saint-Germain right at the heart of most of activity.

Midfield and defence are high on their list of priorities with a couple of switches in the middle of the pitch and a longstanding target for the heart of their backline in the offing.

But with so little time to replace outgoings acitvity is more likely to stall this late in the window unless there is a chain of transfers depending on each other. Mirror Sport has rounded up the best of the continent's transfer news, rumours and gossip.

Final push for Skriniar

PSG are willing to give one last go to prise Inter defender Milan Skriniar out of San Siro before the transfer window closes. L’Equipe reckon the portents do not look promising with PSG reluctant to meet the Italian side’s £77m valuation for the 27-year-old Slovakian. PSG still want to make one more singing to reinforce their backline and whilst Monaco’s Axel Disasi is also on their radar, Skriniar is still the top target.
