PSG complete permanent signing of Aurier

French football club Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) have taken the option to turn Toulouse defender Serge Aurier's loan into a permanent signing.

"Paris Saint-Germain is happy to announce it has triggered the option to buy clause for Serge Aurier. The Cote d'Ivoire international has signed a contract with the club until June 2019," said the club on Wednesday, reports Xinhua.

Aurier has made 14 appearances in all competitions for PSG, including 12 in the top-flight local league, since arriving in July, helping them to Coupe de la Ligue success after the 2014 Trophee des Champions winning campaign last August in Beijing.

The 22-year-old, the best right back of Ligue 1 in the 2013-2014 season and a member of the Cote d'Ivoire national team who played the 2014 World Cup and won the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations, has scored one goal and provided two assists this season for Laurent Blanc's side.

"I am enjoying magnificent season, both on an individual and team level. I am very proud that the club is again showing its confidence in me. I will continue to progress to help the team reach the summits of the game, both in France and Europe," said Aurier.

PSG president Nasser Al Khelaifi said: "Aurier is a young player with enormous potential. Like his young teammates, he represents the future of Paris Saint-Germain. It was logical that we trigger the option to buy."
