PSG to offer Kylian Mbappe to Sheikh Jassim at Manchester United
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) are set to offer Manchester United a chance to sign Kylian Mbappe if Sheikh Jassim is successful in his takeover bid, according to El Pais (h/t Manchester Evening News).
The Qatari banker is keen on acquiring the services of the forward in the upcoming transfer window if he becomes the Red Devils’ new owner. To that end, the Ligue 1 outfit’s owners, Qatar Sports Investments (QSI), plan to use their links and offer the 2018 World Cup winner to the Old Trafford side.
Ahead of this summer, the France international has informed the Parisians about his intentions of not extending his stay at the club. As a result, the 24-year-old will become a free agent at the end of next season.
However, PSG have informed Mbappe of their plans to sell him to United. The forward is receptive to the proposal and finds it ‘interesting’.
The French national has been at the Ligue 1 outfit since 2017. Over the years, the 24-year-old has been one of the best players in the world, consistently finding the back of the net for the Parisians.
However, during his time at the Parc des Princes side, Mbappe has been unable to get his hands on the Champions League trophy. Thus, it remains to be seen what the future holds for the forward.
United’s attack mostly relied on Marcus Rashford to find the back of the net consistently last season. The England international was the Red Devils’ leading goalscorer in the 2022/23 campaign.
Unfortunately, none of our other forwards contributed considerably in the final third of the pitch for the Dutch manager. The Old Trafford side did not have a lot of depth in the number nine position either, with Anthony Martial and Wout Weghorst in our ranks for the last few months.
