Tottenham defender outlines future PSG plans

 

Tottenham right-back Serge Aurier has outlined his plans to one day return to French side PSG. 

 

The Ivorian has divided opinion in north London following his 2017 arrival from the Ligue 1 champions, with Aurier failing to fully win over supporters. 

 

Aurier has benefitted most from Jose Mourinho's November appointment following Mauricio Pochettino's dismissal earlier in the season having been granted a more attacking role in the system. 

 

However, while the 27-year-old has made a first team spot his own at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Aurier plans to one day return to the Parisian powerhouse. 

 

"Can I see myself finishing my career at PSG? That is my plan!" Aurier told Canal+ Afrique. 

 

"I would like to finish at PSG. It is before everything else the club of my heart. I have a feeling of unfinished business. 

 

"It has been my club since I was a kid, I would go watch matches at the Parc des Princes. It was a dream for me to come to PSG and for me that dream is not finished. 

 

"If I was to finish my career at PSG, I would love that. I could have spent my entire career at PSG, that certainly wouldn’t have upset me. When you play for the club of your heart, you don’t want to go anywhere else nor do you have regrets. 

 

"There are players who have spent nearly their entire careers at one club because it is love. It is not a question of money or anything else. All my family is in Paris, I am Parisian, I cannot dream of better. 

 

"Today I am having my little career elsewhere, I hope to be the best a bit everywhere. I am following PSG from afar, but it remains my club and that will not change."

Aurier moved to PSG from Ligue 1 basement boys Toulouse in 2013, while his WhoScored rating of 7.18 is the third best for Spurs this season.
