Thomas Tuchel wants three Dortmund players to spark PSG rebuild | OneFootball

Thomas Tuchel is angling for some of his former Borussia Dortmund players to join him at Paris Saint-Germain.

According to the reliable Paris United, the PSG head coach is hoping for three signings from the German giants.

Julian Weigl and Raphaël Guerreiro played for Tuchel at BVB, while Abdou Diallo is also on the PSG coach’s wishlist.

Moves for Weigl and Guerreiro are nothing new for PSG.

The club made an approach for Weigl in January, only to be rebuffed, while they attempted to sign Guerreiro in 2017 and 2018.

Deals for the duo should be easier now, with Dortmund looking to trim their squad after the arrivals of Mats Hummels, Thorgan Hazard and Julian Brandt.

The deal to sign Hummels also makes Diallo a likely candidate to be sold after just one season at the Westfalenstadion.

However, the report says Tuchel still needs to convince PSG sporting director Leonardo that chasing the trio is worthwhile.
