Spanish sports publication Marca reports that Monaco and Real Madrid have agreed to a £161 million fee for Kylian Mbappe, a deal that would make the teenager the world’s most-expensive player.
A report claims Real president Florentino Perez wants to sell Karim Benzema this summer to make room for Monaco teenager Kylian Mbappe.
"He used to spend hours watching videos [of Ronaldo] on the internet." Mbappe's father told France Football last year .
Mbappe is a gamble. He has only played 49 games for Monaco and he is 18 years old, but Madrid do not want to be looking back at this summer in six years time wondering what could have been, as Mbappe lifts the Ballon d’Or.
Stunning stats showing he is better than Messi and Ronaldo at the same age
It is one of the unwritten rules at Spain’s biggest club that the best player in the world should play for them. It’s why they have broken the world transfer record five times for Luis Figo in 2000, Zinedine Zidane in 2001, Kaka and then Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009, and Gareth Bale in 2013.
Mbappe is going no where this summer.
He might go to PSG.
You were right.
