The Spanish side were determined not to break their wage structure, and their offer was blown out of the water as PSG doubled it.

Now as things currently stand, the agreement between Monaco and PSG is in place with the player also happy for it to be finalised.

But that now looks like being nothing more than speculation as the teen's future looks set to take him to the capital.
