Kurzawa named in PSG squad to face Pau after swap deal for Juventus' De Sciglio called off

Layvin Kurzawa has been named in Paris Saint-Germain's squad to face Pau on Wednesday after a proposed swap deal with Juventus full-back Mattia De Sciglio was called off.

Kurzawa, who has now entered the final six months of his current contract with the French champions, looked set to seal a switch to Turin amid interest from Premier League side Arsenal, who have seen left-backs Kieran Tierney and Sead Kolasinac struggle with injuries.

Indeed, Bianconeri boss Maurizio Sarri and PSG coach Thomas Tuchel confirmed recently that the European giants had been in negotiations over a deal, although Sarri did admit that he knew little of the France international's skillset.
