According to Spanish programme Jugones, the Ligue 1 champions are obsessed with the idea of bringing in the young Brazilian.
Paris Saint-Germain have been in the headlines this summer primarily related to the movements, or otherwise, of their experienced Brazilian forward Neymar Jr. But it is being reported that a younger compatriot of the former Barça man is a key target for the Ligue 1 champions.
The Neymar operation has taken a turn in the last couple of hours just as Jugones reported.
According to reports on Monday from Spanish programme Jugones, PSG are insisting on Vinicius, however, the answer from the Spanish giants has remained a clear 'no'.
Sources close to negotiations have told AS that the Parisien side are only contemplating a Neymar deal if Vinicius is part of it.
With the 19-year old at risk of not getting significant minutes again this season under Zidane, Leonardo is hoping to take advantage of his desire to play, especially after shining in the earlier part of last year's disappointing campaign. There is a belief that he will get a much bigger chance in the Parc des Princes.
