Mbappe Tranfer to Madrid in doubt after Monaco chief dismissed any deal

Mbappe vs Dortmund 
The football world is awash with gossip! Transfer Talk is monitoring the whispers ahead of all the summer moves. Check out the latest deals and potential deals here. For a while now, it has appeared that Real Madrid are the club most determined to land Monaco prodigy Kylian Mbappe -- and Marca reports that they are determined enough to "pulverize" all transfer records.

The Spanish outlet says Madrid "have reached an agreement in principle with Monaco for the transfer of Kylian Mbappe," and that deal is eye-watering -- €180 million in all, consisting of a €160m fee and an extra €20m in incentives. Marca adds that the previous world record fee, paid by Manchester United for Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba last summer, "could be ancient history soon."  Monaco have not agreed a fee with any club for the services of Kylian Mbappe, according to the French side’s vice-president Vadim Vasilyev.
Real Madrid and Manchester City have been heavily linked with the teenager throughout the summer with Mbappe currently the hottest prospect in world football. Marca reported that Real had agreed a deal thought to be worth €180m (£161m) but Vasilyev denies any agreements with the Spanish side or any other club. “I assure you there is no agreement with a club,” Vasilyev said. “We have very great demand for Mbappe. He’s the biggest prospect in world football.


“We are discussing an extension with Kylian. I hope we’ll get there.”Meanwhile, Vasilyev was also asked for his thoughts on a potential move to PSG for Brazilian superstar Neymar, he said: “I think it would be a good think for Neymar to play in Ligue 1. It would be good for France.”
