Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are all reportedly keeping a close eye on Arsenal defender William Saliba. The France international has a long-term contract with the Gunners but could find it difficult to overlook the temptation of trying on a new challenge.
Real Madrid, Bayern, and PSG All Want William Saliba
