Paris Saint-Germain have received a £259m offer for Kylian Mbappe from Al Hilal and have given the Saudi Pro League club permission to talk to the forward.

A breakdown of Al Hilal's record breaking offer to Kylian Mbappe:

€700m a year
€58.33m a month
€13.3m a week
€1.9m a day
€79,900 an hour
€1,332 a minute
€22 per second

The deal would also allow him to join Real Madrid for free next summer

At least five clubs have contacted Paris Saint-Germain in recent days about signing Kylian Mbappe - with Premier League sides among those interested.

I just don't even understand why will they offer £250 million. PSG will accept closer to £100 as they have to sell. Does not make much sense.

Kylian Mbappe is not interested in meeting representatives from Al Hilal to discuss a move to Saudi Arabia.

PSG have given Al Hilal permission to speak to Mbappe after the Saudi club made a world-record €300m offer for the player on Saturday.

Representatives of Al Hilal have been in Paris this week but there has been no meeting with Mbappe's camp.

PSG insiders believe Mbappe is refusing to speak to Al Hilal because he has already agreed to move to Real Madrid as a free agent next summer when his contract expires.

Bayern Munich's chief executive and technical director are flying to London to meet with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy about a transfer for Harry Kane, according to reports.

Chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen and technical director Marco Neppe arrived at Munich airport on Monday morning to fly to England.

The clubs were due to meet last week but that session was rescheduled, while dialogue has remained open between the two sides about the future of England captain Kane.

A gap in valuation still exists between Bayern and Spurs but Kane remains open to speaking formally to the German club if Spurs are satisfied it is a good deal.

The German champions are convinced Spurs' record scorer wants to join them.
