The future of Kylian Mbappe was set to become one of the big draws of the summer transfer window, even for Arsenal supporters. However, worryingly, the latest news may have more of an impact on the Gunners than they anticipated, and not for a good reason.
Arsenal will be wary of news dropping that Mbappe is more likely than ever to remain a PSG player. No, not because the Gunners had a chance to sign him, but what this meant for the potential movement and actions of other players and clubs.
Real Madrid had looked the favourites to land Mbappe. With Karim Benzema having just a year on his deal, it made sense that Los Blancos would invest in a young forward to take the position forwards and into the long-term future.
