Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to open another paypal account in the country you reside in and add an address / phone number / and bank accounts from within that country.
You are supposed to withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts before you leave your old country. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved.

So how then do I close the account so that I may open another one with the same email?

You probably won't be able to now.
Did you read the second paragraph in my post above?
