Manchester United could be set to sign Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain.
Qatar officials are plotting a stunning move for the 24-year-old if Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani completes his takeover at Old Trafford.

El Pais reports that agents linked with PSG’s Qatar owners proposed the move to Mbappe in February. And it is believed the Frenchman is “interested” in the move.
Mbappe has already written to the Ligue 1 champions, informing them that he does not wish to extend his contract beyond 2024.
This has left the French club infuriated and ready to sell him this summer, rather than let him walk away on a free transfer next year.
That development coincided with reports from the Qatari newspaper, Al-Watan, owned by the family of Sheikh Jassim, claiming their bid to buy United from the Glazer family would be announced soon.
