AS Monaco were one of the most exciting clubs to watch in the recent domestic season as they managed to lift their first league title in more than 15 years, under Leonardo Jardim last campaign.
They have a sparkling squad with some of the finest talents in the country playing in different positions at the club and it does not come as a surprise that most of their star players are wanted by clubs from all over Europe.
Bernardo Silva has already left for Manchester City while Fabinho is now close to a move to Manchester United. Tiemoue Bakayoko has completed a move to Chelsea while Thomas Lemar and Benjamin Mendy are also linked with an exit extensively.
But one player attracting the most interests, from the biggest clubs in Europe is French youngster Kylian Mbappe.

The 18-year old has grown into the finest teenager in world football in just a year and has already made his national team debut in the previous season.
He was in excellent form in front of goal for the League 1 side last season and is now wanted by a host of clubs in Europe.
Real Madrid already had a bid of around €130mn rejected for his services while Arsenal met a similar fate with their £100m bid more recently.
He is also being monitored by PSG, Liverpool and Manchester City but it is now understood that AS Monaco are in no mood to let him go this summer.
According to reports from French publication Journal du Dimanche, Monaco will hold out for a price in excess of €130m (£113.7m) and will not sell for anything less.
The report also claims that Kylian will now be offered a massive pay rise to keep him at the club.

The story suggests that AS Monaco are ready to offer a 900% pay rise on his current contract and are confident of keeping him beyond this transfer window.
His current contract runs down in 2019 and it is understood that Monaco are ready to offer him a 5-year deal which take his earnings from €18k-per-week to €162k-per-week, making him the highest earner at the club, alongside Radamel Falcao.
Do you think Kylian will quit Monaco this summer at all?
