PSG are eyeing Stoke City striker Marko Arnautovic.

The People says the French giants have been monitoring the Austrian forward for the past two years and, after the impressive form he has shown this season, feel he has matured sufficiently for them to make their move.

PSG have spoken with the player's representatives and made an initial approach to Stoke, with Britannia Stadium bigwigs rebuffing their advances.

But wealthy PSG are keen to test the Potters' resolve and are planning a £7.5million-plus offer this week which they hope will at least bring them to the negotiating table.
