Premier League giants Chelsea have joined the race for Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain, according to RMC Sport.
The future of the 24-year-old France international at PSG is in major doubt.
The France superstar has been left out of the club’s pre-season tour of Japan, leading to big questions over his immediate future at the Parc des Princes.
Mbappe had earlier in the summer revealed his plans to see out his contract with the club and play one final season in Paris before leaving on a free transfer next summer.
Real Madrid are widely reported to be his chosen next destination, but PSG are keen to sell him now to make sure they don’t lose one of the world’s best players for nothing.
And after the latest twist in the saga, reports in France claim Chelsea are interested.
There is no offer from the Premier League club, claim RMC Sport, but they are looking into whether it’s financially viable to sign the World Cup winner.
The reports also say ‘at least one other’ English club is interested.
Saudi Arabia are also said to have joined the party, with Al-Hilal reportedly ready to offer Mbappe huge €400million wages across two years and a €200m transfer fee to PSG.
