Real Madrid and Kylian Mbappe’s reunion emerges

Real Madrid and Kylian Mbappe have been tipped to reignite their reunion by January. It has been suggested that the La Liga giants are reportedly intending to reach a pre-contract agreement with Kylian Mbappe in January, before signing him for free next summer.

National Daily learnt that Los Blancos have reportedly set aside a sum of £200m ($250m) for the Paris Saint-Germain star. The amount will be used to cover Mbappe’s wages and a signing-on fee, according to Sport.

Mbappe was recently frozen out from the PSG’s squad during the club’s pre-season tour in Japan following his fallout with the club earlier this summer.

The 24-year-old World Cup winner has been reluctant to extend his stay at Princes Park after he refused to sign a new contract. Meanwhile PSG who would have desired to retain their talisman wanted him to extend his stay so that if he left in 2024, the club would get some money from his transfer. The issue has though been temporarily resolved, with Mbappe returning to action for PSG at the start of the new Ligue 1 season with five goals in three appearances so far.

PSG are once again considering offering a new deal to Mbappe, but the player has so far resisted their pressure. Real, on the other hand, did not make a marquee signing this summer to replace Karim Benzema as they remain hopeful of landing the PSG forward next summer.
