Laurent Blanc will consider making an offer for Chelsea defender David Luiz when he becomes the new coach at Paris Saint-Germain, the Daily Mail reports.

Luiz, 26, is being lined up to replace former Chelsea defender Alex, 31, who is keen to return to Brazil. 

He confirmed meanwhile that he suffered a broken nose during Brazil's Confederations Cup match against Mexico on Wednesday night and he will need surgery.

He was forced into an emergency kit change after heading his skipper Thiago Silva in the first half while trying to clear a free-kick.

Luiz was left holding his nose as blood poured out, looking very groggy as struggling to keep his eyes open and he will need a mask for the rest of the Confederations Cup.

Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino is set for a triple snub with three high-profile players set to reject the club, The Mirror reports.

The ambitious chiefs keen on talented Cagliari midfielder Radja Nainggolan, powerful Celtic midfielder Victor Wanyama and Roma striker Pablo Osvaldo.

But Nainggolan, chased by a string of bigger clubs, maintains he would only move to Southampton as a last resort.

He said: "My priority is looking for a brighter future for my career and Southampton is my last choice.

"Southampton gave me the biggest offer at the moment among the other clubs but I don't play football for money."
