Young Paris Saint-Germain winger Jean-Cristophe Bahebeck has emerged as a transfer target for Lazio this summer.

The 22-year-old French youth international featured sporadically for the first team this season, after previously spending time out on loan at Troyes and Valenciennes.

Bahebeck managed 18 appearances, but only three starts, in all competitions for the star-studded French champions, and could leave for regular football.

Il Messaggero reveal that Lazio director Igli Tare has spent most of his time identifying young, versatile forwards to reinforce his front-line and has identified Bahebeck as his newest target.

Other alternatives include recently released Manchester City striker John Guidetti, who scored for Sweden against the Italy under 21’s on Thursday, and fringe Liverpool striker Fabio Borini.

Meanwhile, Lucas Biglia is continually being linked with an exit to one of Europe’s elite teams this summer, and Tare has begun assessing potential replacements.

Sporting Lisbon midfield maestro Adrien Silva is the name that is being bandied around a lot more in recent days, as has Borussia Monchengladbach general Granit Xhaka.
