As the summer transfer window prepares to officially open later this week, the rumour merry-go-round is set to go into overload as players from all over the continent are linked with big-money moves.
After days of seeing Declan Rice, Harry Kane and Neymar Jr dominate the gossip columns, it is now the turn of Romelu Lukaku and Kylian Mbappe to steal the limelight.
On Monday, Mbappe sent the footballing world into shock when it was revealed, via the media, that the 2018 World Cup winner would not be exercising the one-year extension clause in his contract at Paris Saint-Germain. It is claimed Mbappe wrote a letter to club officials detailing his desire to leave next summer, with the Telegraph claiming PSG will now look to cash in on the player they signed for £166m from AS Monaco in 2017 to avoid losing him on a free transfer in 12 months time.
