Real Madrid hwere said to be interested in the 30-year-old but president Florentino Perez has been put off by his age and price-tag, according to El Nacional.
The report has suggested that PSG, however, could use the Qatar World Cup as an opportunity for club president Nasser Al-Khelaifi to “try to speak personally with Son” about a move.
The Ligue 1 club have been interested in Son in the past but opted against going for him, but the uncertainty surrounding Lionel Messi’s future has opened up the possibility of a fresh move.
The Argentine star’s contract at the Parc des Prince is set to expire at the end of the season and he is yet to commit his future to the club.

Messi will have plenty of options should he decide against a stay in France, with former clubs Barcelona and Newell’s Old Boys keen on a reunion.
David Beckham‘s MLS franchise Inter Miami has also been linked with a move.
Should Messi leave PSG, then it could open up a spot in the attack for Son to join the club and line up alongside Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.
However, the report also suggests that PSG will not be the only club in the running to sign Son as it states Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea are all interested in him.

Son’s contract at Spurs expires in 2025 and will only have two years left to run on it after the end of the current season.
Son has not been at his prolific best this season as he has only managed five goals in 19 appearances in all competitions.
