Barcelona and Chelsea are said to be exploring a sensational summer swoop for Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbapp
Barcelona have reportedly offered Paris Saint-Germain the chance to sign Gavi as part of a stunning swap deal for Kylian Mbappe. The Catalan giants are still operating with limited transfer funds as they continue to battle serious financial restrictions off the field but that hasn’t stopped them from attempting to beat arch rivals Real Madrid to the punch
PSG have made no secret of the fact they are desperate to offload Mbappe, who is continuing to frustrate his current employers by swerving a contract extension
.
Now PSG see no other alternative but to flog their star man before the September 1 transfer deadline to avoid the prospect of losing him on a free transfer in the summer of 2024.
According to L’Equipe, Barca have now made their move and have presented PSG with the chance to land Gavi as part of the package.
Yet Barca are prepared to lose their exceptional teenage talent in exchange for Mbappe, who could prove to be a game-changing signing for Xavi.
However, the report also notes that a bid from Chelsea appears to be imminent with the Blues also pushing for the Frenchman behind the scenes.
PSG are chasing a big-money fee though particularly after receiving a jaw-dropping £259m world-record proposal from Al Hilal.
Mbappe has made it crystal clear he won’t be moving to Saudi Arabia though and that has blown the race for his signature wide open.
