Paris: Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday confirmed that Ivory Coast defender Serge Aurier`s loan from Ligue 1 rivals Toulouse has been made into a permanent deal.
The 22-year-old, who shone at last year`s World Cup in Brazil and helped the Ivorians win the Africa Cup of Nations earlier this year, has made a total of 14 appearances for Paris this season, scoring one goal.
Paris did not confirm the fee paid for Aurier, a right-back who began his career with Lens and then spent two and a half years at Toulouse before being loaned to the Parc des Princes last summer.
Media reports in France place the fee in the region of 10 million euros (£7.2m, $11m).
Aurier did not feature as Laurent Blanc`s side beat Metz 3-1 on Tuesday to move three points clear of Lyon at the top of Ligue 1 with three games remaining.
