Kylian Mbappe has been the centre of attention for a number of clubs in Europe, including almost all the big name ones, including the likes of Premier League outfits of Liverpool and Arsenal, who have been regularly linked with the French starlet. However, the strongest of all have been with the Spanish giants Real Madrid, who are reportedly ready to bag the youngster with a world record bid this summer.
Mbappe has been at the top of his form in the recently concluded season and has been scoring prolifically for his club AS Monaco. It has been primarily due to his efforts that his team have been able to lift the French Ligue 1 title after 17 long years. He is rated as one of the most highly regarded players in the current scenario and has everything it takes to become the future star of French as well as World football.
Zinedine Zidane, the current coach of the Galacticos, under whom they have had the privilege to achieve the incredible feat of winning both the Champions League and Spanish La Liga in the same season, has been a fan of his compatriot and is making every possible effort to make him a part of his squad in the next season. However, as per sources, Los Blancos will have to cough up as much as £90 million in order to get a hand on their desired player in the next season.
Recent reports suggest that the Real boss has also contacted the French striker personally and has assured him of the fact that he will be giving him a starting place in the first team, given he signs for them in the summer. However, aforementioned teams like Liverpool and Arsenal are also looking to bag the player, trying to lure him with the same kind of assurance to make him a part of their starting XI in the next term.
However, it will be quite difficult for the Gunners to crack the deal as they will not be the part of the Champions League in the next season, this being the first time since 1998. The Reds, though, will be playing in the Champions League and that might be a big factor that works in their favour to make the 18-year a part of their team in the next season.
Real Madrid, in the current scenario, looks to be the best-placed team to bag Mbappe, given the kind of financial strength they have at the helm.
