Big-spending Chelsea are the latest Premier League club to make an offer for wantaway Paris St Germain (PSG) ace Kylian Mbappe.
Following news that Liverpool offered the striker a season-long loan as he looks to run down his PSG contract, which expires next July, the Blues are looking to hijack the move.
According to PA, Chelsea, who on Monday agreed a £38.57m deal to sign Monaco defender Axel Disasi, “are working hardest” to pull off a player-plus-cash deal for Mbappe.
