Any hint of truth in these Mpabbe and Verratti rumors? If there is genuine interest in Mpabbe, would United need to negotiate with PSG or Monaco as well?

{Ed002's Note - I don't know of any rumours involving these players - I assume you mean moving to Manchester United. I am not aware of any approach from MU to PSG about Verratti although Mourinho was a fan at Chelsea but the player only had eyes for Italy. As I have explained on the European pages in the past, there is a chance that PSG would let Verratti go but that was always driven by a particular need for money by June 30 and I am not so sure Verratti is yet fit after being injured for a while. As for Mbappe, he is a Monaco player until July 1 and then he moves to PSG - if for reasons I can't imagine that does not go ahead, then PSG would pay a penalty to Monaco. There is interest in him from a couple of clubs, one of which will be open to taking him is a deal involving cash and another player. I am not aware of any MU approach for Mbappe.}

Cheers, Ed002. The latest transfer talk going around now (from The Sun, mind you) is that PSG are offering Verratti plus cash for Pogba, and want to offload Mbappe to stay in line with FFP with both Manchester clubs interested. Likely rubbish speculation.
