What is his background?
Born in Poissy in France, N’Soki signed for PSG as a youngster and progressed through Les Parisiens’ academy system.
Having played for the French champions at all age groups, including playing in the prestigious UEFA Youth League, he made the step up to their B team in 2017.
He impressed at reserve level and got his first chance to impress for the senior side in December 2017, replacing Marquinhos to make his Ligue 1 debut in a victory over Caen.
With both Layvin Kurzawa and Yuri Berchiche ahead of him in the pecking order he found opportunities hard to come by for the rest of the 2017/18 campaign.
However, Berchiche’s departure to Athletic Bilbao last summer handed N’Soki an opportunity to impress for the first team during pre-season.
N’Soki put in a number of impressive performances and he was rewarded by Thomas Tuchel with starts in the first team.
In-fact the game against Monaco in which he did start, he played the whole game and created two goals during the 4-0 win over their rivals. His performance drew praise from Tuchel, and signed a new deal in September of 2018 until 2021.
But this season has seen game time limited and that has perked up United's interest.
What do they say about him?
After playing a part in the Trophee des Champions win, PSG boss Tuchel praised his young team. He said: “It is fantastic. We won 4-0, it is incredible. And we deserved it. We won. We played as a team and I loved that.
“It was a very young team. And the circumstances were very tough, it was very hot.
“But we played with intensity, with a lot of intensity, and we played as a team. It is great.”
