QPR joins Watford and Leeds United in your Tuesday Championship round-up.
QPR linked to PSG move.
According to Le Parisien, QPR is considering an ambitious summer transfer for PSG prodigy Ethan Mbappe. The 17-year-old is the brother of football player Kylian Mbappe.
According to French media, the London club, along with Borussia Dortmund and Ajax, is interested in signing the younger Mbappe sibling. The French midfielder came through the PSG system before making his senior debut for the Ligue 1 club in a 3-1 victory over Metz last December.
Ethan Mbappe is typically placed in central midfield, with his influence extending further back on the pitch than his well-known brother. Despite the enticing QPR ties, other reports indicate that Mbappe is likely to stay in France, with Lille the frontrunners for a trade. Watford gave Celtic punch.
Watford’s chase of Celtic striker Rocco Vata may have been dashed after the Scottish club made a massive new contract offer.
The 19-year-old Irishman has been linked with a move to Vicarage Road, as talks over a new contract at Celtic Park look to be taking their time. Vata is now scheduled to become a free agent at the conclusion of next month.
According to the Daily Record, Celtic are ‘eager to get both academy graduates [Daniel Kelly included] signed down to long-term terms’ and have now tabled ‘their finest offers’. Vata has primarily played for Celtic’s B team, but has made six senior appearances after training with Brendan Rodgers’ first team this season.
Leeds United have launched a ‘inquiry’ into Borussia Dortmund
Leeds United are said to have ‘enquired’ about bringing Borussia Dortmund star Marius Wolf to Elland Road this summer, assuming the club wins this weekend’s play-off final at Wembley Stadium.
This summer, the 28-year-old right-back’s contract in Germany expires, and he might become a free agent. According to Sky Sports Germany writer Florian Plettenberg, Leeds United is one of the clubs interested, along with teams from Serie A, La Liga, and Saudi Arabia.
Wolf made 21 appearances across all competitions for Dortmund this season and has been with the club since 2018. The German international’s move to Leeds United would be his first time signing for a club outside of Germany.
