Football transfer rumors: Rising-star Mbappe to be sold by PSG?
Paris Saint-Germain's teen sensation Kylian Mbappe has been linked with a move to the Premier League, while Chelsea's mid-field dynamo N'golo Kante could be heading back to the Ligue 1. Manchester City are willing to break the bank for a Brazilian star while Chelsea and Liverpool are battling it out for a goal-keeper. Here are the top transfer rumors from across Europe.
Manchester United consider a massive deal for Mbappe
Jose Mourinho's Manchester United are mulling a mega deal for PSG star Kylian Mbappe. In order to meet the financial fair play regulations, Paris Saint-Germain might be forced to offload Mbappe. However, this case would only arrive if they are able to retain Neymar. PSG could consider a bid in the range of €270 million, but United are offering €190 million and Anthony Martial.
City line up €100 million Douglas Costa move
Manchester City are willing to make a whopping bid of €100 million in an attempt to sign Brazilian star Douglas Costa from Juventus. The fleet-footed winger 'permanently' joined the Serie A champions from Bayern Munich for €40 million. However, City believe that such a substantial profit would tempt Juventus into selling the 27-year-old.
David de Gea does not rule out Real Madrid move
Manchester United's star goal-keeper David de Gea has not ruled out a move to Champions League winners Real Madrid this summer. However, he insisted his focus is solely on winning the World Cup with Spain. The 27-year-old has been linked with a move to the Spanish capital for years now. A good World Cup campaign could tempt Real Madrid into completing the deal.
Chelsea and Liverpool chase Barcelona's Cillessen
Premier League giants Chelsea and Liverpool are keen on signing Barcelona goal-keeper Jasper Cillessen. The Mirror claims that the Blues are looking for a backup goal-keeper with Thibaut Courtois not willing to commit his future to the club. On the other hand, Liverpool are in need of a new keeper after a disastrous show by Karius in the Champions League final.
PSG keen on Chelsea's Kante
New Paris Saint-Germain manager Thomas Tuchel is reportedly interested in signing Chelsea's mid-field dynamo N'Golo Kante this summer. As per reports, Kante's agent met with PSG chiefs to work out a move to Ligue 1. The Frenchman is arguably one of the best players in his position right now and could demand a hefty fee.
