Monaco youngster Kylian Mbappe is the most highly sought after striker of the summer transfer window. His performance last season won rave reviews and could thus land him a world-record transfer.
According to Radio Montecarlo, the teenager has received a bid worth £118m. Having already cashed in on Bernardo Silva, Jardim’s side will now have to decide whether to hold onto the striker or sell him to the highest bidder.
The rumors did not stop there. AS reported their own version of the story, claiming that it is a three-way race between Real Madrid, Man United, and Man City.
The Spanish publication claim that the newly-crowned Champions League winners offered €135m – their third bid for Mbappe. The Ligue 1 champions have also received £113m and £105m bid from the Red Devils and the Citizens, respectively.
Los Blancos are the favorites to land the forward whose 26 goals helped them win the league and reach the Champions League semi-final. However, the 18-year-old will likely snub a move in order to remain in France and boost his chances of nailing a spot for the 2018 World Cup.
There was no mention of Arsenal, another club offering big bucks for Mbappe. Wenger and club chief Gazidis are in Nice where they are expected decide whether to pursue the striker or not.
