After failing to lure the Atletico man, PSG have swooped to sign former Valencia left back Juan Bernat from Bayern Munich

Paris Saint-Germain, who are going to change their system under new coach Thomas Tuchel, have been looking for a midfielder and a left back this summer. It appears they've found their man in the search for a left wing back. Despite Atletico Madrid's Filipe Luis being the favourite to join the French champions, Bayern's Juan Bernat is the chosen one.

This Wednesday, according to 'Partidazo de la COPE', PSG have agreed a deal with Bernat to join on a three-year contract.

The Spanish left back arrived at Bayern in 2014 but following the exit of his fellow countryman, Pep Guardiola, he's found it difficult to get into the German side's starting XI. Over four seasons he's played 113 matches, scored 5 goals and provided 10 assists.

Bernat's contract at Bayern would've expired in 2019 and they hope to get around €15m from PSG for him. However, according to 'Le10Sport', the only thing holding up the transfer is Bernat and PSG agreeing on personal terms.
