“A normal club, that is to say not a club-state, will not in my opinion pay £170m today.

‘In my opinion, only Manchester City, Newcastle and Real Madrid can pay today.

“For me, the real price is between £85m and £130m, after which there can be bonuses to go up to £170m or almost.

“If there are few suitors, it is not likely to increase its price.”

Real Madrid in 2021 rejected an offer of £170m for Mbappe, who again had less than a year on his deal.

Eventually, the forward agreed new terms with PSG but just two years on and he is ready to leave again.

It leaves Real in pole position to finally get their man but the likes of Liverpool and Manchester United have also been linked.

So too incredibly have Arsenal, who Independent say Mbappe would actually favour if he was to ever make a move to the Premier League.

It is claimed the striker likes the evolution under Mikel Arteta and would enjoy the challenge of delivering the title to the club.

But Arsenal – set to take their spending to £200m this window alone – would not be able to financially compete with their rivals.
