Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly considering a bid for Tottenham Hotspur star Dele Alli.

PSG are considering a £50 million bid for Spurs star Dele Alli, according to the Mirror.

While the 20-year-old seems perfectly happy at White Hart Lane, as has happened so many times before in football, the lure of money could play a huge part in where he is playing his football next season.

Tottenham will surely fight tooth and nail to keep hold of their young star, but should they consider selling, here are three PSG players who they should demand in exchange for Alli:

Marquinhos:

The 22-year-old Brazilian centre-back is considered to be one of the classiest operators in European football.

Jan Vertonghen will be 30 by the time the summer rolls around, and despite still being at the top of his game, he will arguably have already reached his peak physically.

Marquinhos word add a touch of class and depth to the Spurs backline.

He can also play at right-back, so his versatility would be a major asset for Tottenham.

Marco Verratti:

The 24-year-old Italian has everything you would want in a central midfielder.

He would probably be the most like-for-like replacement for Dele Alli, with his ability to make perfectly timed runs into the box, but has the added bonus of being more disciplined defensively.

Lucas Moura:

Tottenham have been accused of lacking quality in depth in forward areas over the past year or so, and the 24-year-old Brazilian would be the ideal candidate to provide them with just that.

He is quick and direct in his playing style, and his presence in the team would arguably bring the best out in Harry Kane, with his potent deliveries into the box being a key part of his game.
