The report added the centre-back has already accepted PSG's offer and turned down approaches from several other clubs including Man United and Chelsea.
It is believed PSG's decision to move for Ramos was informed by the club's need to add experience within their ranks after losing Thiago Silva to Chelsea on a free transfer last summer.
The development comes only days after Ramos claimed he had a desire to remain in Madrid but was forced to leave after failing to reach an agreement with the club on new terms for his contract.
"I’ve never wanted to leave," Metro UK quoted him saying.
"The club offered me one year, with a drop in salary. I wanted two years, not for the money, for continuity for me and my family. The economic issue was never a problem," he added.
