Southampton rival PSG for Lille wing-back Djibril Sidibe

Southampton are moving for Lille wing-back Djibril Sidibe.

Sidibe is on the radars of PSG and AS Monaco, with the latter having tabled a €10 million offer.

However, L'Equipe says Saints are also keen, particularly as Claude Puel is set to be confirmed as new manager.

Puel has worked with Sidibe at LOSC and regards the player highly.

For his part, Sidibe wants to join a club where he is "visible" as he targets a place in France's 2018 World Cup squad.
