PSG are ready to step up their interest in Tottenham manager Andre Vilas-Boas according to The Guardian.

The Qatari-owned side are currently in the market for a new manager with Real Madrid almost certainly likely to announce Carlo Ancelotti as the successor to Jose Mourinho in the coming days.

It is thought that a deal has been agreed to take Ancelotti to the Spanish capital but PSG are refusing to confirm it until they have his replacement lined up.

PSG had wanted to lure Guus Hiddink from Anzhi Makhackkala but the Russian side have invoked a clause in the Dutchman’s contract extending his deal for another year.

That has prompted them to turn to Portuguese boss Vilas-Boas who has rebuilt his reputation last season at Spurs following his disappointing reign at Chelsea.

It is not yet clear whether AVB will be interested in the overtures of PSG, with the Spurs boss having previously stated that he is keen to take charge of a second season at the club.

Despite having managed Portuguese sides Academica, Porto and previously Chelsea, AVB has never managed a club for more than one season.

The lure of managing one of the world’s biggest clubs with a seemingly unlimited budget may prove too tempting for AVB to buck that trend.
