PSG want to sign World Cup star as backup for Gianluigi Donnarumma - Reports
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) reportedly want Sevilla's Yassine Bounou as a backup for Gianluigi Donnarumma.
The Morocco international was at the heart of his nation's fourth-placed finish at the 2022 FIFA World Cup, where he kept three clean sheets in six games. According to RMC Sport, he's valued at €15 million by Sevilla, who could have to sanction a sale due to their delicate financial situation.

It remains to be seen if Bounou will be open to play as Donnarumma's backup. The two-time UEFA Europa League winner still has two years left in his contract at Sevilla.
PSG manager Luis Enrique will soon have to take a firm stance on Kylian Mbappe's situation, as per reports.
The French superstar has made it clear that he doesn't want to stay at the club beyond June 2024. Real Madrid have emerged as a realistic destination for him, but they reportedly want to sign him as a free agent next year.
Reports have also stated that Mbappe is demanding a €240 million payout from the Paris-based giants if he's to be sold this summer. There's still no clarity on where the 24-year-old will play next season.
