PSG coach wants £120m rated striker

Paris-Saint-Germain boss Unai Emery has stated that he wants the £120m rated striker Kylian Mbappe to sign for last season’s Ligue 1 runners-up, reports Goal.

The 18-year-old has attracted interest from all over the world, with a price tag of €120m recently being slapped on the French International.

Real Madrid and Arsenal have been the two clubs reportedly battling it out for the Frenchman’s signature, but Emery admits that he would love to have Mbappe playing at the Parc de Princes.

“When we speak of Mbappe here in Spain, we talk about Real or Barca. But I’m at PSG and I say: ‘What could be more beautiful than representing a French team?’” the 45-year-old Spainish coach told a conference in Bilbao.

“With all respect to Monaco, he should come to Paris, he has family here. His parents live here, he went to an academy here.”

“We spoke of feeling, passion, desire – and what could be more beautiful than representing your city and being important?”
