PSG star Marquinhos has said that he and his Paris Saint-Germain team-mates are waiting for Monaco star Kylian Mbappe to join the club.

After signing Neymar in a world-record €222 million deal from Barcelona, PSG have turned their attention to 18-year-old sensation Mbappe, who is tipped to move to the French capital.

When asked about Mbappe following PSG's 3-0 victory over Saint-Etienne on Friday, Brazilian defender Marquinhos said: "We are waiting for confirmation. We do not know yet. We look at things on the Internet. We're still waiting.

"The PSG project is very ambitious. To be ambitious, you have to have big players, big stars.

"He's a player who made the difference with Monaco, if he comes here, he's going to bring us a lot."
