Juan Soto: New York Mets sign outfielder to record $765m deal

Juan Soto is set to sign what is reportedly the biggest contract in the history of sport after agreeing a $765m (£600m) deal over 15 years with Major League Baseball's New York Mets.

Multiple sources in the United States have disclosed details of the deal, although the Mets have yet to confirm it because the 26-year-old Dominican needs to complete a medical.

Soto was set to be MLB's most sought-after free agent this off-season having just had the best season of his career with the New York Yankees, again showcasing his elite ability to get on base.
