Sheikh Jassim ‘wants Kylian Mbappe and two France team-mates at Man Utd’ in transfer splurge if takeover successful
POTENTIAL new Manchester United owner Sheikh Jassim is reportedly ready to make a splash at Old Trafford.
That’s by pulling off an incredible triple swoop for French trio Kylian Mbappe, Eduardo Camavinga and Kingsley Coman.
Qatari billionaire Sheikh Jassim is hoping to complete a full takeover of United after submitting a new bid at the end of April.
The Middle Eastern businessman hopes to see off interest from Brit Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
And Bild claims Sheikh Jassim has big plans for the Red Devils should he replace the Glazers this summer.
The ambitious tycoon is hoping to land not one, not two, but THREE members of France’s squad who finished runners-up in December’s World Cup.
The top name on Sheikh Jassim’s list is Paris Saint-Germain superstar Mbappe, who has 35 goals this season.
The 24-year-old only signed a new contract with the Ligue 1 champs last year and reportedly pockets a mammoth £900,000 each week.
Sheikh Jassim also hopes to bolster Erik ten Hag’s midfield with the capture of Camavinga, 20.
The youngster has clocked up over 90 games in less than two years at Real Madrid.
But he could jump at the chance to re-establish himself as a midfielder after being deployed at left-back for most of the season.
Real are also confident of winning the race for Borussia Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham.
And that would likely relegate Camavinga to an even lower spot in Carlo Ancelotti’s midfield pecking order.
