If reports in Italy are to be believed, tonight, the French title race may already be over, with Sky Italia claiming that Paris Saint-Germain have launched an astonishing double bid for Monaco pair Kylian Mbappe and Fabinho.
The deal will reportedly be worth £201 million, with Mbappe alone costing £128 million and PSG's Brazilian winger Lucas Moura being involved as part of the deal.
Should the deal go ahead, Mbappe would become the world's second most expensive player, with his potential new teammate Neymar smashing the transfer record when PSG parted with €222 million to bring the Brazilian forward to the French capital from Barcelona, two weeks ago.

Fabinho, meanwhile, was rumoured to have been a summer long target for both Manchester United and City, although United's capture of Nemanja Matic put an end to any potential move to Old Trafford for the 23-year-old midfielder.

The deal would take PSG's summer spending to well over £400 million. It's also safe to say the deal would pretty much secure PSG the Ligue Un title after Monaco wrestled it away from them, last season, thanks largely in part to Mbappe and Fabinho's efforts.
