    L’Equipe report that Monaco forward KYLIAN MBAPPE has decided to leave the club, with Real Madrid, Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain in the race to sign him.

    The Sun claim Barcelona will use the money from Neymar’s sale to fund moves for Chelsea’s EDEN HAZARD and Liverpool’s PHILIPPE COUTINHO.
