Real Madrid’s director has reportedly met with Kylian Mbappe‘s father after the player’s most recent comments about his Paris Saint-Germain future.
Real Madrid target Kylian Mbappe recently revealed that he could be searching for newer pastures during the summer. The France international is wanted by nearly everyone who can afford him across Europe and his comments certainly put all of his suitors on red alert. Recently at a French award ceremony, the Paris Saint-Germain forward said:
"It’s a very important moment for me, I have come to a turning point in my career," Mbappe said. "I have discovered a lot here and I feel it is maybe the moment to have more responsibility. I hope that can perhaps be at Paris Saint-Germain, that would be a great pleasure. Or maybe elsewhere with a new project."
According to Fox Sports, Jose Angel Sanchez, one of the senior members from Real Madrid’s board of directors has already gone and talked to Kylian Mbappe’s father regarding a transfer to the Santiago Bernabeu. The player is keen on a move and he has hinted prior as well, but whether Paris Saint-Germain will budge remains to be seen especially after releasing an official statement.
The Parisians have labelled the France international at 350 million euros according to several claims which is definitely an exorbitant price tag. What’s dangerous is that the price will only keep on increasing with the way the 20-year-old World Cup winner is performing despite the lack of level yet sky-high level.
Hence, a move right now is the best option for any team interested in buying him and Real Madrid’s need for Mbappe is the gravest among all. The former Monaco is second to only Lionel Messi in the Golden Boot standings and would be the ideal replacement to Cristiano Ronaldo, courtesy of his brilliant goal scoring record.
