Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly open to cashing in on midfielder Carlos Soler during one of the upcoming transfer windows.
During the summer, Soler was one of three central midfielders - the others being Vitinha and Renato Sanches - who made the switch to Parc des Princes.
While Vitinha has been a regular and Sanches' game time has improved since his return from injury, Soler is seemingly regarded below the Portuguese pair in the pecking order by Christophe Galtier.
The 25-year-old has made a total of five starts and seven substitute outings in all competitions, contributing three goals and one assist.
Each of those efforts have come since October 25 onwards, the initial indication being that the Spain international was becoming a more influential part of the squad.

Furthermore, Soler was also selected to represent Spain at the World Cup, scoring in the 7-0 win over Costa Rica in what is his solitary outing in the competition thus far.
Nevertheless, according to France Bleu Azur, PSG are prepared to sell the former Valencia man in order to boost their position with FFP.
The report suggests that club officials are eager to raise funds in order to push through with their plans ahead of 2023-24.
PSG were able to sign Soler for €20m in August, a consequence of less than 12 months remaining on his Valencia contract, and the French giants may be willing to do business for a similar fee.

The alleged development is likely to attract the attention of Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta, who has been linked with a move for Soler in the past.
Sitting at the top of the Premier League table by five points, the Gunners are expected to be active in January with a new central midfielder at the top of Arteta's list of priorities.
However, any move for Soler will have to wait until the summer with the player having already represented two clubs during 2022-23.
Although players were able to feature for three clubs in one season during the coronavirus pandemic, that was a temporary rule change and has since switched back to the previous regulation.
