Paris Saint-Germain owners want Kylian Mbappe at Manchester United if Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad al-Thani becomes owner, reports El Pais.
The Qatar Islamic Bank chairman wants to buy the Old Trafford club from the Glazers, scuppering Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s hopes of taking over.
Major squad changes are expected if Sheikh Jassim wins the race, and Mbappe is on their radar.
The France international has told the Qataris that joining Man United interests him.
However, he has not committed to joining them and they will continue to monitor the situation.
Mbappe has decided not to extend his deal at PSG beyond 2024, and the Ligue 1 club could be forced to sell him.
There is an option for him to extend his contract by another 12 months, but he will not do so.
PSG are left with no choice but to sell him this summer or risk losing him for free next summer.
The 24-year-old joined the 11-time French champions from AS Monaco initially on loan in 2017 before completing a permanent move the following year.
Mbappe is ready to leave the Parc des Princes club after six seasons, but Man United may not have a chance of landing him.
Real Madrid have been perennially linked with the Frenchman and are expected to relaunch a bid for him this summer.
They have lost Karim Benzema and need a solid replacement such as Mbappe in attack.
Joining another Qatar-owned club may not be exactly appealing to the France international.
He is unlikely to leave Les Parisiens on good terms, which could affect his chances of moving to Man United if Sheikh Jassim takes over.
