Mbappe transfer request?
Real Madrid have been put on red alert amid reports Kylian Mbappe wants to leave PSG.
According to El Chiringuito TV, the Frenchman has handed in a transfer request.
And with Zinedine Zidane expected to be handed a huge budget, Real will be closely monitoring Mbappe's situation.
Mbappe dropped a huge hint last month that his future could lie elsewhere.
"It's very important moment for me, I come to a turning point in my career," he said.
"I have discovered a lot here, and I feel it is perhaps the moment to have more responsibility.
"I hope that can maybe be at Paris Saint-Germain, that would be a great pleasure, or perhaps elsewhere with a new project."

£106m Hazard agreement
Real Madrid have reportedly reached an agreement with Chelsea over the signing of Eden Hazard.
Los Blancos secured the £52m signing of striker Luka Jovic earlier today.
And finally confirming the arrival of Hazard is their next priority.
According to Belgian outlet HLN, Real and Chelsea have agreed to negotiate, with the Spaniards willing to pay €120m (£106m).
The Blues had previously rejected two offers from the Spanish giants but they've settled on a figure following negotiations between Chelsea chief Marina Granovskaia and Real CEO Jose Angel Sanchez in London.
HLN report that Real are happy to wait until after Belgium's Euro 2020 qualifiers to officially sign contracts and unveil Hazard.
Arsenal target sets deadline
Arsenal and Tottenham may have to wait until the end of the window to sign Ryan Fraser from Bournemouth.
The 25-year-old is out of contract next summer and Bournemouth could look to cash in to avoid losing him for free.
Fraser rejected fresh terms last year and there are no plans for further extension talks ahead of the new campaign.
And Starsport understands the winger expects his future to be decided on transfer deadline day.
The window closes on August 8, just two days before the new season gets underway.
Bournemouth are yet to set an asking price for Fraser and both Arsenal and Spurs could explore other options before deadline day as they target value in the market.

Man Utd dealt £105m blow
Manchester United look set to miss out on Benfica star Joao Felix this summer.
A new report from Marca claims rivals Manchester City are now 'best placed' to secure a mammoth summer transfer.
The Spanish publication states that Pep Guardiola's men won't hesitate to pay the €120m (£105m) release clause included in Felix's contract.
The City boss is extremely keen on the Portuguese youngster.
And the fact Guardiola wants his side to meet Benfica's demands could force United out of the race.
Auabmeyang's China decision
Arsenal believe Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is settled in north London and he is set to stay amid interest from China.
The Gunners striker has emerged as a target for Guangzhou Evergrande and Shanghai SIPG.
Both Chinese Super League sides are ready to offer him big money to move to the Far East.
The Times have suggested wages of £300,000-a-week would be tabled to Aubameyang.
But Arsenal have no intention of letting their £56m record signing leave ahead of the 2019/20 season.
As part of his existing contract, it is said Aubameyang receives a £3.75m loyalty bonus for every season he completes at Arsenal.
The club subsequently feel that should help deter him from having his head turned by the salary on offer in China.

Liverpool and United in £60m battle
Manchester United are leading the race to sign Leicester star James Maddison.
The 22-year-old returned 14 goals and assists and he provided the most goalscoring chances in the league.
The Independent say Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham are all interested in the midfielder but it's United who are in 'pole' position to sign him.'
Leicester want to keep hold of their prized asset though and it will take an offer of close to £60m to get the Foxes to even consider opening talks.
