Arsenal have been sent a brutal warning regarding their alleged interest in Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe.
Mbappe has been the subject of mass transfer speculation after informing PSG that he would not be renewing his contract next summer.
In turn, the 24-year-old forward has been tipped to leave the Ligue 1 giants to avoid losing him for free next season.

Real Madrid are thought to be firm favourites to land Mbappe's signature after attempting to lure him to the Bernabeu last year.
However, Carlo Ancelotti could face competition from Arsenal, who are currently 'considering whether or not to send a package' to his representatives, according to a sensational report from FootballTransfers.
The report adds that the Gunners are keeping tabs on the Frenchman's situation, having already signed Chelsea forward Kai Havertz this summer.

Meanwhile, the north London club are on the verge of completing the signing of Declan Rice after agreeing a £105m deal with West Ham last week.
One would suspect Mbappe's price tag could be a major stumbling block, though, having originally joined PSG from Monaco in a deal worth £163 million in 2017.
And former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has issued a brutal response to the rumours, referring to the links as a "good dream".

Speaking about Mbappe's future on his YouTube channel, Ferdinand rubbished reports that Mbappe could join Arsenal, but admitted he could not imagine the World Cup winner playing at Old Trafford either.
"I don’t think he’s even gettable (for Manchester United) at the price they’re talking about for him,” said the former England international.
When asked about a potential move to Arsenal, he added: "You man can’t get him either! Arsenal can’t get him either. Don’t even start thinking and dreaming.
"It’s a good dream."
