After spending just one season with the Bundesliga giants, the highly-rated centre-half is set to return to France with the Ligue 1 champions

Abdou Diallo is close to joining Paris Saint-Germain in a €32 million (£29m/$36m) move, Borussia Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc has confirmed.

When asked by Ruhr Nachrichten if Diallo was departing, Zorc said: "That has turned out so.

"Abdou has decided that he wants to take on another challenge and for us it was a good fit, so we agreed to the change."

Diallo will further bolster PSG's centre-back options as the club look to the future, with the Frenchman joining Marquinhos, Thilo Kehrer and Presnel Kimpembe as central defensive options who are all 25 or younger.

After Pablo Sarabia and Ander Herrera, Diallo will be the third new addition to PSG's first-team squad for next season.
