Transfer news RECAP: PSG sporting director confirms Kylian Mbappe wants to leave for Real Madrid

Transfer news RECAP: PSG sporting director Leonardo confirms Kylian Mbappe wants to leave for Real Madrid while Harry Kane confirms he’s staying at Tottenham ending talks of a move to Manchester City











The summer transfer window is reaching its crescendo with clubs throughout Europe looking to finalise their squads before the ever-approaching deadline.   

Premier League clubs have until 11pm on August 31 to get their deals over the line, with the future of Tottenham talisman Harry Kane set to be the major talking point until the window’s closure.   

The big bombshell so far has been Lionel Messi’s switch to PSG after leaving Barcelona, which will certainly have a drastic impact of the market. 

Real Madrid have submitted a £137m bid to land Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain

Of course, Manchester United have been lively, signing both Jadon Sancho and Raphael Varane, while rivals Manchester City broke the British transfer record with the £100million acquisition of Jack Grealish.   

Chelsea – who spent big last summer – have done so once again, bringing Romelu Lukaku back to Stamford Bridge for a whopping £98m.
