Lille have organised a medical for Ethan Mbappé (17) as they push to sign the Paris Saint-Germain midfielder to his first professional contract.

It was reported earlier today that Lille were keen to sign the younger Mbappé brother on a free transfer at the end of his aspiring contract in June, as they believe that the midfielder has a promising future.

However, this transfer has already developed within a few hours as Lille have looked to accelerate their negotiations. According to an update provided by Santi Aouna, Lille have reached a verbal agreement with the player and have already arranged a medical.

Lille the perfect environment for Ethan Mbappé?

Lille appears like it would be a promising environment for any young player to find their feet in the professional game, as Les Dogues are known for placing immense trust in potential and encouraging them to grow. Even with the uncertainty over their future manager, this will remain a key component of any future project put in place by the club.
