From Spain: Real Madrid definitively gives up on Mbappe

Real Madrid have definitively abandoned the offer of French striker Kylian Mbappé for next season, according to Cadena Ser . The white club no longer intends to sign the Parisian '7', even though they will not expand their relationship with Paris Saint-Germain.

According to the Spanish broadcaster, there are three main reasons why Madrid are no longer targeting the French star, for whom president Florentino Pérez had a soft spot. The first has to do with the salary scale, as Mbappé wouldn't land at the Bernabéu for less than €20 million a year, while Jude Bellingham earns €9 million. The second reason is related to the current transfer policy.

Los Blancos are betting on young players with great projection like Vinicius, Rodrygo and Bellingham and Mbappé will turn 25 in December 2024. Finally, Real Madrid did not like the move of the French striker, two seasons ago, when he accepted the millionaire offer of PSG and renewed with his current club. So the statement of a few days ago to deny any negotiation would not be a facade position of Real Madrid.
