When asked about Real Madrid’s links to Kylian Mbappe and how he could improve his squad, Carlo Ancelotti said: “I’ve never talked about players who are not at Madrid.
“I can talk about how many a lot of new players we have: Bellingham, Fran Garcia, Arda Güler. Also, Brahim, who has come back very well from his experience in Milan. He is a stronger and more complete player.
“I can also talk about how well Modric, Vinicius, and Rodrygo have returned. Talking about those who are not here doesn’t seem right to me.”
Mbappe has reportedly been put up for sale by PSG, who are ready to sell him in this summer to avoid the risk of losing him for nothing when his contract expires next year.
Los Blancos are reportedly ready to pay big money to sign him, but the Ligue 1 giants are unlikely to make things easy. If not in the summer, Madrid are expected to agree a pre-contract with him in January and sign him on a free transfer next year.
