Agent: Barcelona Turned Down Chance to Sign Kylian Mbappe in August

Former football agent Josep Maria Minguella has said he offered Barcelona the chance to sign Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe in the summer, but the Catalan giants did not take him up on it.

Minguella, who "has ties to Barcelona," according to Sport, told La Porteria:

"On the 5th August I offered Mbappe to Barca. They didn't respond and now I believe they commited an error which will impact Barcelona for the next 10 years. His father told me that Kylian would've loved to have played alongside Leo Messi."
