Paris Saint Germain president Charles Villeneuve has admitted he would love to sign Arsenal captain William Gallas.

Reports last weekend suggested PSG were lining up a swoop to sign the fomer Marseille star as they look to assemble a squad capable of challenging Lyon in Ligue 1.

PSG have been busy in the transfer market, bringing in experienced performers Claude Makelele and Ludovic Giuly - and Villeneuve would welcome the prospect of Gallas moving to the French capital.

When asked about interest in the defender, Villeneuve said: "We would be happy to be given a ring by William Gallas, very pleased.

"But for the moment there's no news."

The prospect of a move to PSG for Gallas seems improbable, though, with the player and Arsenal unlikely to entertain a switch away from the Emirates.

PLEASE LET THIS BE TRUE!!!!!
