Arsenal have launched a world record bid for AS Monaco superkid Kylian Mbappe.

Marca says Arsenal have offered more than £123.3million for Mbappe.

Boss Arsene Wenger has confirmed he's a big fan on the 18-year-old striker and this morning a monster bid was made.

A bid of "more than 140 million euros" was lodged, which equates to £123.3m.

If true, it hints that Arsenal were willing to smash the world transfer record to get their man.

It's also around three times more than the Gunners' club record too, which they broke last week after signing Alexandre Lacazette for £46.5m.
