Paris Saint-Germain midfielder and Liverpool target Christopher Nkunku has admitted that he wants regular first-team football next season.
TalkSport report that the 20-year-old would consider a move away from the French capital for the benefit of his career.
Nkunku has been restricted to just five starts in Ligue 1 this season and has regularly featured coming off the bench towards the end of matches.
Those are disappointing figures for the Frenchman who made his first-team breakthrough the season before as he made 20 appearances.
In an interview with L’Equipe, he said:
I’d have liked for things to have gone better, for me to play more. When I had playing time, I tried to make the most of it. We’ll see what happens after the holidays, at the beginning of July. What’s clear in my head, is that I’m not ready to face a season in which I don’t play, or do so very little. If the Coach wants to use me more in the rotation, I’ll have to think about it. I need to establish myself in a particular role and work on it so I improve.
PSG are now managed by former Borussia Dortmund boss Thomas Tuchel, as Unai Emery left to join Arsenal earlier this week.
Nkunku is known to prefer a central midfield role, although was used wide left on occasion during the absence of Neymar.
It is believed a fee of around £16m would be enough to sign the France U21 international.
