PSG hope to have a new forward by the time they face Barcelona

Immobile, who Emery had at Sevilla, is said to be the French club's top target

Paris Saint-Germain plan to sign a new forward in the January transfer window to strengthen Unai Emery's squad as they go through a difficult moment. 

The failure of summer signings Jese Rodriguez and Ben Arfa has set alarm bells of in Paris and led the club to look for a new forward to provide support for Cavani.

According to various reports, Ciro Immobile, who has scored nine goals for Lazio this season after joining from Sevilla, is the club's top target. 

It's claimed the Ligue 1 club have been watching the striker and will do so again during this weekend's game against Fiorentina at the Estadio Olimpico. 

The Italian, 26, is not the only option, though, with Carlos Tevez, Robin van Persie, Carlos Bacca, Jonas, Marcus Rashford and even Iago Aspas linked. 

One of the conditions which sporting director Patrick Kluivert is working towards is that the player must be free to play in the Champions League. PSG face Barça in the last 16.
