Fabrizio Romano Says Arsenal Agree to Personal Terms With PSG, Real Madrid Target
PSG could be preparing for a transfer showdown with Arsenal, AC Milan, Juventus, and Real Madrid over one of Spain's most promising young defenders. However, it's the Gunners who have reached the second stage with the player agreeing to personal terms.
Despite boasting one of the best defenses in Ligue 1, PSG's backline is starting to show signs of wear after a long season. Lucas Hernandez is playing but still coming off a serious injury, and while Marquinhos remains a vital leader, he's not quite as explosive as he once was.

Presnel Kimpembe continues to be an influential presence in the locker room, but his availability remains uncertain in both the short and mid-term. Luis Enrique sees real potential in Lucas Beraldo, though the Brazilian is still viewed more as a depth option than a consistent starter.
PSG could miss out on defensive targetOn Sunday, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano revealed that Arsenal have agreed on personal terms with Christian Mosquera.
After Valencia rejected Arsenal's initial €14 million bid, the club is preparing a new offer—the Premier League side hope to complete the deal for a fee over €20 million, with talks currently ongoing.
Marca has reported that Real Madrid are already weighing their options for next summer's free agents. Arsenal left-back Myles Lewis-Skelly and Mosquera are among the names on their radar.

Foot Mercato reported that Mosquera is on PSG's transfer radar this summer to continue injecting youth into the center-back position. A key player for Valencia, the Alicante native could be sold by the club to boost its finances.
Nonetheless, it seems Arsenal have the upper hand in this race and if they present an offer that satisfies Valencia, then the Gunners will come away with the talented young defender.

BVB's late pursuit of Belgian Pro League MVP
Could they be too late for this transfer? Dortmund are reportedly making a last-ditch attempt to sign Club Brugge's and the Belgian Pro League's most valuable player, Ardon Jashari. The Swiss international's market value soared to €32 million, making him the most valuable player in Belgian Pro League history, according to Transfermarkt - his value jumping from €25 million, cementing his status after a standout season with Club Brugge. Advertisement In recent days, AC Milan have tabled bids in the region of €30 million to €32 million, combining fixed fees and performance bonuses. Club Brugge, however, remain firm in seeking a €35 million base price plus additional payments, pushing the total towards the coveted €40 million mark. Dortmund have previously backed out of a deal because of those numbers - but with the sales of Moukoko and Gittens, they are seemingly interested to at least try and discuss a new deal for Jashari. The 22-year-old has only arrived in Belgium a year ago, after completing a transfer from Swiss side FC Luzern to Club Brugge for €6 million. He managed to play 52 games for the Belgian side and was even involved in 10 goals (4 goals, 6 assists) from defensive midfield. At Dortmund, Jashari would face fierce competition from Pascal Groß, Emre Can, Salih Özcan, Felix Nmecha and new signing Jobe Bellingham; but he has already proven to exceed expectations in Belgium - and he would definetly fit into a new profile in Dortmund, due to him being left-footed.

Treasure Trove of 20 McLaren Road Cars s Is for Sale, Most of Them Orange
The personal road car collection of Mansour Ojjeh, longtime McLaren racing team sponsor, is up for auction. There are 20 cars, each of them the last of its line. The collection includes the last McLaren F1 ever built and could go for a record sum. There are car collections, and there are car collections, and the 20 cars currently coming up for auction at Tom Hartley Jnr is emphatically the latter. Let's start with the headliner: the last McLaren F1 ever made, showing just 1100 miles on its odometer. The F1 was McLaren's first road car, and the 20 supercars listed here are basically a snapshot of the brand's roadgoing legacy since, almost all of them finished in a deep metallic orange called Mansour Orange. Tom Hartley Jnr Tom Hartley Jnr You don't get your hands on the last ever F1 even if you're a longtime McLaren fan and owner, and this collection formerly belonged to a man central to the McLaren story. The late Mansour Ojjeh, part-owner of the TAG motorsports and aviation group, joined F1 as a sponsor of the Willams team in 1979. He later moved into ownership of McLaren during the mid-1980s, and he was there for the development of the TAG-Porsche racing engines, which brought early success to the team. Ojjeh was with McLaren for the next 40 years, including being part of the fateful moment, along with Ron Dennis and Gordon Murray, when the idea of the F1 was born. Tom Hartley Jnr Tom Hartley Jnr Ojjeh had other blue-chip cars in his collection at the time, specifically some of Ferrari's best, but as McLaren got going he started to create an all-McLaren lineup. This is that collection, featuring special editions and Le Mans series cars, including a Senna GTR, Speedtail, and Elva. All except for the P1 GTR and the F1 are completely undriven, each one the last chassis built of that particular model. Tom Hartley Jnr Tom Hartley Jnr Tom Hartley Jnr Tom Hartley Jnr It's an interesting way to create a collection, making sure you have the best and last variant made. Since all but two are basically brand new—and those two are museum quality—it's a fantastic opportunity for someone to acquire a collection dedicated to pure McLaren enthusiasm. With the team's F1 team doing so well in this year's championship, the timing is right too. Carefully curated by someone who was in the front seat for McLaren's transformation from racing team to full-scale supercar manufacturer, this collection is sure to fetch the tippiest-top dollar out there. They don't come any more significant than this. Brendan McAleer Contributing Editor Brendan McAleer is a freelance writer and photographer based in North Vancouver, B.C., Canada. He grew up splitting his knuckles on British automobiles, came of age in the golden era of Japanese sport-compact performance, and began writing about cars and people in 2008. His particular interest is the intersection between humanity and machinery, whether it is the racing career of Walter Cronkite or Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki's half-century obsession with the Citroën 2CV. He has taught both of his young daughters how to shift a manual transmission and is grateful for the excuse they provide to be perpetually buying Hot Wheels. Read full bio
