Sheikh Jassim 'wants to sign KYLIAN MBAPPE' if he buys Manchester United in a £5bn takeover deal, with Bayern Munich and Real Madrid stars 'also on the Qatari's transfer wishlist'

Sheikh Jassim is keen to land Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain if he can complete a takeover of Manchester United, according to reports.

As part of a Qatari group looking to take over at United, Jassim is among the front runners aiming to buy a controlling stake in the club.

He is one of two parties thought to be among the serious contenders along with Sir Jim Ratcliffe as they compete to purchase a significant stake of the Old Trafford outfit from the Glazer family.

But reports are suggesting Jassim already has a list of transfer targets lined up for when he takes over including Mbappe.
