Real Madrid and Arsenal were leading the race earlier in the summer, before PSG took over.

And Le Parisien report a deal to end the saga is imminent — with Monaco to receive a fringe player on top of the mammoth fee.

Serge Aurier, Hatem Ben Arfa, Grzegorz Krychowiak, Goncalo Guedes, Lucas Moura, Julian Draxler and Angel Di Maria are all on the transfer market at the Parc des Princes as they look to balance the books in order to comply with Uefa's Financial Fair Play regulations.

Di Maria is expected to join Barcelona as a replacement for Neymar, and Aurier is also a wanted man.

Reports suggest Monaco have requested Draxler, but the Germany international has turned down the move.

Real Madrid are still in the market for a frontman, having allowed Alvaro Morata to join Chelsea.

However, they will not pay Monaco's huge asking price for Mbappe.

PSG have already showed ambition this summer, with the world record £198million deal to sign Neymar.

They also brought in Dani Alves on a free transfer.
