Thomas Meunier will consider becoming a free agent next year if Paris Saint-Germain rebuff the dozen clubs that have made contact since January.
Arsenal and Manchester United are reportedly interested in taking the Belgium international to the Premier League for a cut-price fee in the more immediate future.
PSG will have an important decision to make if offers are submitted, with just 12 months left to run on right-back Meunier s contract.
The Ligue 1 champions are already set to lose Adrien Rabiot for nothing and could run into a similar headache at the end of next season.
It s something that could suit me, Meunier told Le Parisien when asked about the prospect of leaving next year.
I don t think the club would make a lot of money from me, actually. I have a market value, but I m a defender, I play one game out of three and I m turning 28.
It s not like Adrien, who is worth 50million euros.
champion!

While midfielder Rabiot was frozen out after refusing to sign a new deal, Meunier is more receptive to staying at Parc des Princes.
The former Club Brugge player is willing to discuss an extension if PSG choose to end the impasse.
I told the leaders that I was ready to stay, that I would like it a lot, he said.
They didn t tell me, We absolutely want to sell you . They know that at some point they will need me.
If the club tells me, Listen, we want to sell you, we need money, there s financial fair play , and I will not play next year, then we will find a solution to satisfy both sides, of course.
As for rumours of a switch to England, Meunier added: There have been phone calls since January with interested clubs. There are a dozen clubs, all of which are in the top five of their leagues.
Meunier started 27 times for PSG during the 2018-19 season, scoring five goals.
