Liverpool's Luis Suarez and Manchester City's Edin Dzeko are reportedly on a list of transfer targets drawn up by Paris Saint-Germain boss Carlo Ancelotti.

The former Chelsea manager is determined to add at least one big-name striker to his squad over the summer and the French club's Qatari owners will make funds available for him to do it.

His list of possible acquisitions includes Real Madrid's Gonzalo Higuain and Valencia's Roberto Soldado, as well as the Premier League duo, reports the Sunday Times.

Suarez's future at Liverpool has been the subject of much speculation since he received an eight-match ban for racially abusing Manchester United's Patrice Evra, and Juventus are rumoured to be planning a £30million bid.

However, the Uruguayan has indicated he intends to remain at Anfield and Reds boss Kenny Dalglish does not want to sell.

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini is believed to be willing to listen to offers for Dzeko, who has been unable to secure a regular place in the starting line-up.

The Bosnia international, who cost £27million when he moved from Wolfsburg in January 2011, has also been linked with Juventus.

His agent, Silvano Martina, recently told TuttoJuve that Dzeko is not interested in a transfer and is '100 per cent' certain to stay at City.

That situation may change if PSG make a sizeable bid, as they can offer the player a lucrative salary package and Champions League football.

Should City opt to offload Dzeko, Mancini is likely to make a move for Higuain, who is no longer first choice for Real Madrid.
