NEW Paris Saint-Germain boss Thomas Tuchel is looking to offload Dani Alves, according to reports in Spain.
Having spent £198million on Neymar last summer and with another £166m leaving their accounts to finalise a deal for Kylian Mbappe, the French champions are in danger of failing to meet Uefa’s FFP requirements.
They are looking to sell various squad players in a desperate attempt to make up the money.
And Alves could be one of those heading for the exit door, with AS reporting Tuchel has offered him to Sevilla, the right-back’s first European club.
Alves only joined the PSG last summer following a season at Juventus — and had been a target for Manchester City and Chelsea.
He became the most successful player in history in March, with his first two trophy successes at the club taking him to 36 in his career. He then added the Ligue 1 and Coupe de France to take his tally to 38.

But, it was at Sevilla, where he began winning medals on a regular basis.
Alves joined the La Liga side with one trophy to his name in 2002 and left with another five in 2008 — including back-to-back Uefa Cup triumphs.
EUR NO 1 Real Madrid, Barcelona, Liverpool, Ajax or AC Milan? As Zinedine Zidane brings curtain down on end of an era, we ask: which is greatest-ever team?
He signed for Barcelona where he would establish himself as one of the best right-backs on the planet and win the Champions League on three occasions.
At Juventus, he won the Serie A and Coppa Italia double.
