Sheikh Jassim wants to sign Kylian Mbappe for Manchester United

PSG are prepared to sell Kylian Mbappe to Man Utd this summer should Qatar's Sheikh Jassim succeed in his takeover bid at Old Trafford.

Sheikh Jassim is currently battling it out with British billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe to acquire one of the world's most famous clubs. Mbappe meanwhile has told PSG that he will not extend his contract beyond 2024.

As a result the French giants have told the 24-year-old superstar striker that they will sell him this summer rather than lose him for nothing in a year's time.

Real Madrid have always been hot favourites to land Mbappe after almost doing so in the past, but relations between Los Blancos and PSG are somewhat strained.

And, according to The Mirror, PSG are prepared to sell to Man Utd if Sheikh Jassim comes out on top in his battle with Ratcliffe.

United and coach Erik ten Hag are desperate for a top striker to spearhead their return to the land of the living, but have already reportedly pulled out of a move for Tottenham's Harry Kane.

Napoli star Victor Osimhen is another player who has attracted United's interest - but the price tag for the Nigerian is likely to be too high.

Mbappe of course would cost a record British transfer fee (likely in the race of £150m), but as one of the world's top stars that would still be seen as a steal for Man Utd and the Premier League.

Manchester United are trying to sign the sons of their technical director, according to the Athletic.

The Red Devils appointed former player and five-time Premier League champion Darren Fletcher as the club's technical director in 2021. Despite his lengthy spell with United, his twin sons, Tyler and Jack, are part of the Manchester City academy - but perhaps not for much longer.

City reportedly want to keep the young stars, and a 'substantial fee' might be required to get any deal over the line.

News from Italy now, and long-time Man Utd target Adrian Rabiot will not make a decision on his future until the end of June.

The French star is a free agent this summer and has the offer of a one-year deal on the table from current club Juventus.

According to Turin outlet Tuttosport, Rabiot - and his mum and agent Veronique - want a little more time to ponder their options though with Man Utd also bidding for his services and that Old Trafford takeover saga rumbling on

Goalkeeper David De Gea is set to leave Man Utd this summer after more than a decade with the club.

The Spanish star is a free agent this summer, and is expected to leave after being left off the club's retained list for 2023-24.

While the official line coming out of Old Trafford is that talks remain open, it is believed De Gea is unwilling to take a reduction on his massive salary (believed to be £375,000 per week).

Man Utd appear set to miss out on the signing of highly-rated Napoli central defender Kim Min-jae. The South Korean, who helped his team to their first Scudetto in 33 years last month, is now close to joining Bayern Munich (Fabrizio Romano).

Man Utd are set to lose England star Alessia Russo to Arsenal on a free transfer - after turning down a world-record bid from the Gunners in January.

The 24-year-old is understood to have wanted to extend her stay with the Red Devils, but a lethargic response from the club side meant that an agreement couldn't be reached.

And now she is set to make the move to north London with United receiving nothing in return.

We have an update on the future of Mason Greenwood, but only a small one. The young star has been frozen out of the squad since January 2022 following legal and personal issues.

The 21-year-old though IS on United's retained list for the 2023-24 season.

United are ready to table a final bid for Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount after their initial £40m offer was rejected.

Chelsea want £70m for Mount, a fee United will not sanction with the player out of contract in the summer of 2024. A bid of between £50m and £60m appears likely.

Promising midfielder Zidane Iqbal is expected to leave Man Utd this summer with a number of clubs interested, we can reveal.

As yet there is no official line on whether the move will be permanent or loan, with Championship and League One clubs interested along with options in the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain.
