Paris Saint-Germain's club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has played down reports that the French side are interested in signing Juventus forward Paulo Dybala. 

The Argentine star is one of the most sought-after players in world football, with a host of Europe's elite clubs interested in signing the 24-year-old, including Manchester United, Barcelona and PSG.

Juventus however have remained firm in their stance on the availability of Dybala, although speaking to La Stampa (via Insidefutbol), Al-Khelaifi insists the Juventus man is not on PSG's radar. 

He said: "The truth is there are a lot of good players in Serie A, not just Dybala. If we are interested in him, we'll call Juventus.

"[Juventus president Andrea] Agnelli is a good friend but I can tell you that Dybala, at the moment, is not the key to PSG's future."

PSG currently boast one of Europe's most devastating front-lines of Kylian Mbappe, Edinson Cavani and Neymar, scoring 31 Ligue 1 goals between them, leaving to talents of Angel Di Maria and Lucas Moura warming the bench.

Dybala, however, is a versatile player and is comfortable operating behind a main striker as well as being able to play further forward.

Juventus's No. 10 has enjoyed a fine season for the Turin side, scoring 14 goals and providing three assists in Serie A this season as Juventus look to claim a seventh straight Scudetto, while also looking forward to a Champions League last-16 tie against Tottenham in February.
