Dortmund confirm €32m Diallo deal with PSG

Abdou Diallo is close to joining Paris Saint-Germain in a €32 million (£29m/$36m) move, Borussia Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc has confirmed.

Centre-back Diallo joined Dortmund from Mainz last year in a deal said to be worth €28m and made 28 Bundesliga appearances as Lucien Favre's men finished second, but it looks set to be his only campaign at the club.

A Monaco youth product, Diallo had been strongly linked with a return to France with Lyon, but PSG have moved to the front of the queue since their interest became known - as revealed by Goal.
