Paris Saint-Germain have agreed a deal to sign teenage sensation Kylian Mbappe from Monaco, French media reported yesterday.
Radio stations France Info and RMC reported that PSG had agreed to pay 180mn euros ($215mn) including bonuses for the French international striker.
That would make him the second most expensive transfer in football history behind Neymar, who joined PSG from Barcelona for 222mn euros earlier this month.
Despite the reports, Mbappe was named on the Monaco bench for yesterday night’s Ligue 1 meeting with Marseille.
According to sports daily L’Equipe, Paris will initially sign Mbappe, 18, on loan before making the move permanent.
“Monaco and PSG on Sunday reached an agreement for a loan deal for Kylian Mbappe to the Parisian club with an option to buy for 180mn euros,” said L’Equipe, adding that Mbappe would undergo a medical today morning.
