Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani will attempt to sign Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe if he completes a takeover of Manchester United, according to a report.

Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani will reportedly attempt to sign Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe if he is successful in completing a takeover of Manchester United.

Alongside Sir Jim Ratcliffe, Sheikh Jassim is seen as the favourite to buy the 20-time English champions, with the Qatari banker looking to purchase 100% of the club.

Sheikh Jassim would likely make significant transfer funds available if he completed a takeover, and according to Bild, Mbappe would be a leading target for the club if a deal went through.

The report claims that the Qatari is also keen on signing Real Madrid's Eduardo Camavinga and Bayern Munich's Kingsley Coman in what would be a standout triple swoop.

Mbappe has again been in excellent form for PSG during the 2022-23 campaign, scoring 35 goals and registering nine assists in 38 appearances in all competitions.

The 24-year-old signed a new three-year deal with the French giants last summer, but there remains ongoing speculation surrounding his future in Paris.

Real Madrid could allegedly reignite their interest in 2024 amid claims that he could leave PSG on a free transfer at the end of the 2023-24 campaign.

However, Sheikh Jassim would reportedly fight for the France international's signature if he is successful in completing a takeover of Man United in a deal that could be worth as much as £5.5bn.

Camavinga has been a vital player for Real Madrid this season, making 51 appearances in all competitions, and he has another four years left to run on his contract at Bernabeu.

However, Sheikh Jassim allegedly believes that Real Madrid's capture of Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund, which is thought to be close, could lead to Camavinga becoming available.

Coman, meanwhile, has scored eight goals and registered seven assists in 31 appearances for Bayern this season, and the 26-year-old also has another four years left to run on his contract.

The Frenchman's ability to play in a number of different positions has allegedly made him an attractive proposition for Man United, who could freshen their attack this summer.

Anthony Martial may leave on a permanent basis, while Wout Weghorst is unlikely to be signed on a permanent basis from Burnley.

Anthony Elanga and Facundo Pellistri could also leave on loan this summer, which would leave Man United needing to add at least a couple of players in the final third of the field.

Sheikh Jassim is allegedly considering approaching the Glazers directly to discuss a takeover of the 20-time English champions, with the Qataris desperate to win the race.
