According to Le10sport, Paris Saint-Germain will not be making a move for Tottenham Hotspur’s Danny Rose while Aston Villa and West Ham United remain keen.

Rose fell out of favour under Spurs boss Jose Mourinho last season.

The England international left-back spent the second half of the campaign on loan at Newcastle United, before returning to North London this summer.

Rose remains out of favour, and a permanent move away appears likely.

But after suggestions of a surprise move to French giants PSG was put forward, Le10sport claim the Ligue 1 champions have passed up the chance to move for him.

PSG are on the lookout for a new left-back after Juan Bernat suffered knee ligament damage and is expected to spend a lengthy spell out on the side-lines.

Rose, 30, could have been an inexpensive experienced replacement.

Le10sport, however, say that a move to Villa or West Ham appears more likely.

West Ham have Aaron Cresswell as their regular left-back. However, the Hammers may feel the added competition could help shrug off a feel of complacency.

Villa, meanwhile, have Matt Targett and Neil Taylor for options, with the latter starting in the recent 3-1 Carabao Cup victory over Burton Albion.

Manager Dean Smith will be looking for his Villa side to go on to establish themselves this season and added experience could be key to achieve their objectives.
