DONE DEAL: Chelsea miss out as PSG secure Mukiele from RB Leipzig

PSG have completed the signing of Nordi Mukiele from RB Leipzig in a deal reportedly worth £13.5m.

The French defender has penned a five-year contract with his hometown club.

Chelsea had also been linked with Mukiele after missing out on Barcelona bound Jules Kounde.

Mukiele told PSG's official website: "Playing for your hometown team is obviously a dream.

"I grew up in the Paris region, in Montreuil to be more specific, so playing for Paris is a massive honour for me, for my friends and for my family, and I'm really happy to have worked so hard to be here today."
