Teenage sensation Mbappe is the most sought-after player in football, with Barca, rivals Real Madrid, Manchester City, Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool all linked with big-money moves for the 18 year-old forward.

French champion Monaco is reluctant to part with its prized asset, with a record fee required to lure the France international from the Stade Louis II.

Despite Mbappe scoring 26 goals in all competitions as Monaco dethroned Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1 and reached the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, countryman Abidal does not agree with the transfer figures being touted.

"Mbappe is a good player, but his price is not £120m," Abidal told Cadena Ser. "I still think he wants to stay in Monaco and confirm his level there.

"He has to make a decision also thinking about his game minutes, because this is the year of the World Cup.

"When you start to pay £100m as was done by Pogba, then for a player with more talent you have to reach £200m and that does not represent the value of the players.

"Here at Barca, what price would be paid for [Lionel] Messi or Neymar?"

Mbappe was impressive again for France, capping his fourth international appearance by assisting Dembele's winner in the 3-2 victory over England.

Borussia Dortmund's Dembele has also been linked with Barca, having revealed the Catalan giant was interested in him last year.

The 20 year-old attacker scored six goals in 32 Bundesliga appearances in 2016-2017.

"Dembele is a very talented player, he would fit very well in the club," Abidal said. "If the bench is strong things are achieved, the signings will help a lot."
