Even before Neymar's transfer and even before this summer, everyone expected Kylian Mbappe to become the world's most expensive player at just 18 years of age. The AS Monaco youngster became an instant sensation with his stellar season in Ligue 1 and the Champions League.

In fact, comparisons to Thierry Henry are on since then and the kid is on the radar of every top club. As we approach the end of this summer transfer window, the French striker is still at AS Monaco. However, PSG are rumoured to be very much interested in him apart from the various transfer links to Real Madrid, Manchester City, Barcelona, Arsenal and Liverpool.

AS Monaco are apparently ready to do business in the upward of £160 million. While that can seem a lot for an 18-year old, Mbappe is unlike any other with his talent truly similar to the legends of the game.

Thus, the defending Ligue 1 champions must have reassessed their player's value in the light of Neymar's transfer. This implies any team wanting to sign the young prodigy will very well have to make him the most expensive player ever and it is a distinct possibility in this window.
