Arsenal defender Hector Bellerin could be on his way to the fashion capital of the world.

Paris Saint-Germain have stepped up their interest in the full-back, offering Arsenal a bid of £25 million with £5 million in add-ons, according to The Guardian's David Hytner.

Bellerin, who has three years left on his contract, is also attracting interest from Bayern Munich and Juventus.

But it appears that PSG could be the favorites to sign the 25-year-old after holding talks with Arsenal daily over the last week, which culminated in a bid, Hytner adds.

While the club prefers to keep Bellerin, the Gunners are open to selling him if they receive an offer that matches their valuation, reports David Ornstein of The Athletic.

Bellerin, who appeared at Paris Fashion Week last year as a model for Louis Vuitton, would reportedly be open to joining the French champions if the two sides reach an agreement.

The Spanish international has been identified as PSG's top target to replace Thomas Meunier, who joined Borussia Dortmund earlier this summer, at right-back.

Arsenal officials are seemingly accepting that the club will need to sell some players to generate income that could then go towards other transfer targets.

Arsenal have already spent £41 million on defenders Pablo Mari and Gabriel Magalhaes, while Willian and Cedric Soares have joined the club on free transfers.

And it appears that there could be more arrivals at the Emirates Stadium, as Ornstein reports that the Premier League club is pursuing Atletico Madrid midfielder Thomas Partey and Houssem Aouar of Lyon.

Bellerin has appeared in over 200 matches since joining Arsenal from Barcelona in 2011.
