Kylian Mbappe could be about to bring an end to months of transfer speculation by staying put at Paris Saint-Germain.

The France boy wonder has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid when his PSG contract expires this summer.

The Independent reports PSG are prepared to make the striker the highest-paid player in the world in order to convince him to stay.

The report claims the Ligue 1 leaders are ready to pay him a basic wage of close to £1million A WEEK in any new deal.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Harry Maguire are embroiled in a power struggle over the Manchester United captaincy.

It is understood interim boss Ralph Rangnick, Ronaldo and Maguire have had conversations about the latter relinquishing the armband for the rest of the season, to take the pressure off him as he wrestles with his own loss of form.

But Maguire is reluctant to do that, for fear of losing the captaincy on a permanent basis.

Interim boss Ralf Rangnick has called on Ronaldo to mentor the young players within the squad, which is understood to have led to further friction with Maguire.

United skipper Maguire is said to feel increasingly undermined by the 37-year-old superstar’s huge influence within the dressing-room, particularly with the younger players.

There is now a growing belief within the Old Trafford dressing-room that it is inevitable Ronaldo will replace Maguire – who has been struggling for form – as captain.

Paris Saint-Germain will reportedly NOT sign Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United in the summer.

Les Parisiens are claimed to be keen on the 37-year-old should he depart Old Trafford in the summer.

But transfer guru Gianluca Di Marzio has stated that the potential transfer is unlikely to happen.

He told Wettfreunde: “From an economic point of view, in terms of merchandising, definitely. His jersey would be the next blockbuster.

“But I don’t think [Lionel] Messi wants to play with Ronaldo and Ronaldo wants to play with Messi. Your relationship isn’t the best. Messi, Neymar and Ronaldo would not be a good combination, whether on or off the pitch.

“I don’t think PSG are interested in it either. You can’t rule out surprises in the football business, but I don’t think a Ronaldo move to Paris is in the cards.”
