Kylian Mbappe sent home from training after bust-up with team-mate as PSG move looms
Reports emerge that Andrea Raggi was the man involved in furious row with teen sensation that led to both players being dropped for victory at Metz
KYLIAN MBAPPE'S furious training-ground bust-up last week was reportedly with Monaco team-mate Andrea Raggi.
The French teen sensation appears to want out of the Ligue 1 champions with Paris Saint-Germain leading the chase for the hotshot.
Reports emerged on Saturday that Mbappe, 18, had been sent home from the club's base following a row with boss Leonardo Jardim.
However, have today claimed that the altercation was in fact with fellow player Raggi.
Both the striker and the 33-year-old defender were left out of the squad for Monaco's victory at Metz on Friday.
And manager Jardim refused to give much away after the clash.
When quizzed on the absence of his star striker, he said: "It is our duty to protect him at the moment."
Mbappe is reportedly desperate to join the world's most-expensive player Neymar at PSG.
LATEST TRANSFER NEWS
He has been one of the most-sought after men all summer following his exploits in helping his side to the title and Champions League semi-finals last season.
Real Madrid have been battling the Parisians for Mbappe's signature, but claim that PSG have already sealed a deal with an official announcement soon to follow.
However, Monaco are determined to keep hold of the ace having already lost several of their best players this summer.
Bernardo Silva and Benjamin Mendy have joined Manchester City, while Tiemoue Bakayoko signed for Chelsea.
They face a monumental task to retain the championship with PSG going the other way in terms of ambition.
The Qatari-backed side obliterated the transfer record to bring in Neymar for £198million — while they also added Dani Alves on a free transfer.
