Paris Saint-Germain youngster Antoine Bernede is to join Red Bull Salzburg on a permanent deal, the Ligue 1 champions have confirmed.
The 19-year-old midfielder was reportedly a target for clubs including Ajax and Sporting CP during the transfer window, but rejected their offers.
He has now opted to join Salzburg after agreeing a deal with the Austrian club.
According to reports in France, PSG will receive 20 per cent of a future transfer fee.
Bernede, who signed his first professional contract with PSG in June 2016, made his first two appearances in Ligue 1 last August.
