Manchester United have been linked with a possible player plus cash deal to send Anthony Martial to France in return for Kylian Mbappe, and fans are loving the idea.

According to the Mirror, Manchester United and Manchester City are in a two horse race to land Mbappe this summer.

The young Frenchman is technically still a Monaco player, but his loan move to PSG will become permanent this summer.

The French champions are staring down the barrel of some hefty Financial Fair Play sanctions though, which could tempt them to cash in on the young star as soon as he signs.

The Mirror report claims the Red Devils are willing to use Martial as a makeweight in the deal, potentially edging them ahead of their city rivals in the race for the 19 year-old, who became the youngster French scorer at a World Cup last week.

Martial is of course expected to leave Old Trafford this summer, and the reported offer of Martial plus £86m is certainly enticing a few fans.

It’s a lot of money to spend, but it would be one hell of a coup for the Red Devils to beat their rivals to the World Cup wonderkid, and fans are loving the idea of a swap deal.
