With that, here are the top transfer rumours of the day.
PSG make massive offer to Mbappe
Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly made a massive offer to Kylian Mbappe which will see him become the highest-paid player in the world.
According to the Independent, PSG are working on a deal that is worth well over £500,000 a week. Mbappe has been linked with a move to Real Madrid at the end of the season when his contract with PSG ends, but reports earlier this week have claimed that the 24-year-old could have a change of heart and remain at the Parc des Princes following PSG's 1-0 win over Los Blancos in the Champions League.
Newcastle join Pogba race
Newcastle have reportedly joined the race to sign Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba, according to Fichajes.
Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, and Juventus have been linked with the 28-year-old for the longest time, while reports yesterday claimed Pogba would be open to a move to United's Premier League rivals. Newcastle are hoping to beat the competition to sign Pogba on a free transfer as he inches closer towards the end of his contract at Old Trafford.
LaLiga chief confident Real Madrid will sign Mbappe and Haaland
LaLiga president Javier Tebas believes Real Madrid will sign Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland in the summer.
"Madrid will get Mbappe and Haaland as the others [Barcelona and Juventus] are ruined [financially]," Tebas told reporters.
"That Mbappe comes is great news for La Liga. It would be a joy for La Liga. It's the best thing that could happen to La Liga. I have no information regarding Mbappe. But I've seen few cases of players who have six months left on their contracts that have not renewed their contracts and then went on to continue at the club."
