With his contract up this year, Unai Emery sees his experience as invaluable

The Portuguese defender also has offers from China and from Turkey

Real Madrid defender Pepe could move to Paris Saint-Germain this summer, according to Cadena Ser. The 34-year-old defender is wanted by Unai Emery for his experience and know-how in the backline. 

Throughout this season, Pepe has been linked with a move to China, where he has huge offers to end his career. He's disappointed with Real Madrid, who have still not made a satisfactory offer for him to end his career with the club. 

There is also interest from some of Turkey's biggest clubs in Pepe, who delayed making decision amid growing interest from some of Europe's biggest clubs, such as Manchester City and PSG. 

Finally, it seems that the offer which has won Pepe around is fom the French club as he still wants to play for Portugal at next summer's World Cup in Russia. Playing at the top level will help achieve that aim. 

Pepe was on PSG's agenda in 2012 but Jose Mourinho and Florentino Perez felt the offer from the Ligue 1 club was too low and managed to convince the centre back to remain in Spain. Now, with his contract up at the Bernabeu, he could leave for free.
