This will without a doubt be one of the most interesting transfer sagas as Mbappe’s current contract expires this summer. It is no secret that Real Madrid love the player. They have been fishing for him since the previous season as they see him as their marquee player.

The player himself has expressed his desire to play for a prestigious club like Real Madrid and follow the footsteps of his idol, Cristiano Ronaldo.
