Paris Saint-Germain boss Laurent Blanc has revealed he is interested in signing Angel di Maria from his former side Manchester United.
The French outfit were in the running to sign Di Maria last summer, however the Red Devils secured his signature by forking out £60million on the Argentina international.
Di Maria failed to live up to expectations during his first season at Old Trafford and is now being linked with a move away from the Barclays Premier League outfit.
Blanc, however, remains keen on enticing the 27-year-old to Parc des Princes.
The former Manchester United centre back, speaking to L'Equipe, said when asked if he was interested in Di Maria: 'Yes. We have our priorities.
'But to strengthen such a team you must target guys who are at big clubs and who are not easy to prise away. That’s hardest for PSG.
'Di Maria, he’s good.We have more freedom, but it remains a difficult project for us because we’re not alone in wanting him.
'When you see the financial power of the English clubs, they are attacking everyone. Competition is very, very tough. Don’t forget, Manchester United paid a fortune to sign him.
'For us to work effectively, we have to think of other solutions. We must be proactive.'
Blanc went on to downplay reports suggesting star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic could leave the Ligue 1 giants.
He added: 'There was never any doubt of him staying! I don’t attach any importance to rumours. For us it was very clear: Ibra was always part of the 2015-2016 squad.'
