Pepe Reina returned to England at the start of this year when Aston Villa took him on a loan deal from AC Milan.

Dean Smith’s side were forced to bring in a new goalkeeper for the second half of the season after first choice player Tom Heaton suffered a serious injury.

The former Liverpool man’s stay at Villa Park is until the end of the season, and the Premier League side don’t have an option to make his transfer permanent.

Reina has already admitted he will return to the San Siro after his loan deal expires and he could have an opportunity to change clubs again in the upcoming window.

According to Foot Mercato, Paris Saint-Germain have set their sights on the Spaniard.

Thomas Tuchel has Keylor Navas, Sergio Rico (on loan from Sevilla with an option to buy) and Marcin Bulka as the three goalkeepers in the squad. The report adds Rico’s stay in Paris will not be extended.

The Ligue 1 winners have ‘targeted’ the current Villa player and it’s claimed Reina ‘would not say no’ to being their second-choice keeper next season. PSG, however, will need to find an agreement with Milan for the deal to take shape.
