      Mbappe caused a stir earlier this month by confirming he will not be extending his contract beyond next summer.
      The revelation has left PSG facing the prospect of losing him for free in 2024 if they do not sell him during the current transfer window.
      Real Madrid have been heavily linked with making a move for Mbappe after failing with an approach last year.
      According to Marca, Mbappe has laid out his condition for making the move now.

      The report claims that he will only accept a move if he does not lose out on any money.
      His remaining 12 months on his PSG deal consists of £51million and a £77million loyalty bonus.
      However, he would miss out on the bonus if he were to be sold this summer.
      Neither Mbappe or his mum and agent Faiza Lamary are willing to lose out on that money.

      Mbappe had instead planned to sign a pre-contract agreement with Real Madrid in January before joining the club when his contract expires.
      That would allow him to receive both his remaining wages and bonus, as well as a signing on fee from the Spanish giants thought to be worth between £86million and 108million.
      Lamary has already had assurances that Los Blancos will offer the same package as they did a year ago.

      PSG’s asking price has also caused an issue with the deal, with the French champions needing to lower the fee in order to compensate Mbappe for forgoing his loyalty bonus.
      However, according to Marca’s report, PSG still want £170million for the 24-year-old, who has been handed an “ultimatum” by the club.
      Mbappe has been told he will be put up for sale this summer if he does not reconsider his contract stance. More

      Man Utd transfer chief ‘fuming with Chelsea over Mason Mount talks’ as Todd Boehly names price for England star

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED’S transfer chief is reportedly fuming with Chelsea over the Mason Mount transfer saga.The Red Devils are keen to land the midfielder, 24, this summer as he enters the final 12 months of his Blues contract and has refused all extension offers.
      Mason Mount’s transfer saga to Manchester United continues to rumble onCredit: Getty
      But their three bids so far – for £40million, £50m and £55m – have all been rejected by the Stamford Bridge club.
      And now the Manchester Evening News report that United’s football director John Murtough is growing increasingly frustrated with Chelsea.
      He is said to be annoyed and taken a dim view of their policy to communicate the United bids through to the media.
      To make matters worse, Todd Boehly continues to hold out for a whopping £65m for the 36-cap England international.

      The Chelsea owner would likely accept £58m with £7m in add-ons, too.
      However, United may struggle to meet that fee with the MEN adding that Murtough’s “hands are tied” due to the financial state of the Old Trafford side.
      The Red Devils do not think Mount is worth as much as Chelsea are demanding, especially given his desire to leave and short contract length.
      And United know they cannot overspend – because their priority remains landing a new central striker.

      It is thought if the Mount negotiations fail with Chelsea to develop – personal terms have already been agreed – then Erik ten Hag has four possible alternatives to the midfielder lined up, although Mount is the favourite.
      Ten Hag even held video calls with some transfer targets to discuss possible moves.
      Declan Rice has previously been linked with Old Trafford.
      But the West Ham skipper looks on course to join either Manchester City or Arsenal.
      Adrien Rabiot, meanwhile, may opt to extend his contract at Juventus, with his current deal expiring on Friday.
      Moises Caicedo of Brighton is another option – but he would not be cheap with the Seagulls rejecting an offer of £75m from Arsenal in January. More

      According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Everton are keen on signing Gnonto this summer.
      The Toffees narrowly avoided relegation to the Championship at Leeds’ expense last term.
      Their final day victory over Bournemouth confined Leeds, who were beaten by Tottenham Hotspur, to the drop.
      Everton are now interested in taking one of their former relegation rivals’ best players.

      Gnonto scored four goals and provided four assists for Leeds after signing from FC Zurich last summer.
      His form for the relegated Whites during his first season in England has seen him attract interest from several clubs, including Arsenal.
      However, any move will likely have to wait, with Gnonto currently on international duty with the Italy under-21s.
      He came on as a second half sub in his country’s opening match of the European Championships on Thursday, a 2-1 loss to France.

      And it is understood the Red Devils boss is open to offers for the Swedish forward.
      Now the Daily Mail report Borussia Dortmund are considering going in with a bid.
      The Bundesliga giants are keen to reinvest some of the £115million they received from Real Madrid for Jude Bellingham.
      But it could only take £10m to convince United to sell their academy graduate, who joined the club aged 12.

      Elanga’s Sweden team-mate Emil Forsberg wanted him to sign for RB Leipzig.
      The United ace was also linked with West Ham alongside Harry Maguire and £40m as part of a possible deal to try and land Declan Rice.
      However, now it looks as though Dortmund are in pole position.
      Boss Edin Terzic is keen to bolster his attack and it appears Elanga could be targeted.

      That is despite the winger’s disappointing campaign last term.
      He managed 26 appearances in all competitions – including just seven starts – and failed to register a single goal for the Red Devils.
      Elanga did manage two assists but will no doubt feel he could have had a better return.
      He remains part of the international set-up for Sweden, though, and scored against New Zealand in the end-of-season fixtures before coming off the bench again as a late sub against Austria.
      But speaking in March, Elanga remained positive about his situation at Old Trafford under Erik ten Hag – who prefers Antony on the right wing.
      Elanga told Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet: “It is frustrating. You want to play, it’s important. But whether you play or not, it’s up to the coach not me.
      “I know what he wants me to do and I just keep training hard. When the opportunity comes, I just have to be ready to take it.
      “We have a lot of conversations, not only about [the gametime] but also what is happening around. That’s the good thing, we talk a lot and they help me a lot.” More
