Achraf Lazaar PalermoLigue 1 side Monaco are reportedly interested in making a move for Palermo‘s Achraf Lazaar.

The French club are looking for a replacement for the departing Layvin Kurzawa who is believed to be a target for Paris Saint-Germain.

According to Sporitalia, Monaco boss Leonardo Jardim is keen on signing the Moroccan and the club will table a bid of €10 million plus additional bonuses.

Palermo have had a busy summer having sold Paulo Dybala to Juventus and Andrea Belotti to Torino, whilst bringing a raft of new signings.

Lazaar joined the Rosanero in January 2014 and immediately established himself as a first-team starter. He has made 45 appearances and scored two goals for the Sicilian club.

Monaco meanwhile could miss out on Champions League football this season after having lost the first leg of their play-off Round by 3-1 against Spanish side Valencia.
