Kylian Mbappé’s contractual situation arouses much desire. Real Madrid is not the only European big name to make eyes at the French world champion…

The future of Kylian Mbappé continues to be talked about. This is obviously particularly true in Spain where AS is raising questions about Real Madrid’s questions about the Parisian striker. As much because of his financial demands, the former Monegasque demanding no less than 35 million euros annually when the best paid players among the Merengue earn 11 million euros net, as for his profile considered too close to that of Vinicius, who took on a new dimension on his left wing.

“Signing Mbappé means signing a problem”, dares the Madrid daily, which considers that the arrival of Erling Haaland would be more relevant given the void left by Karim Benzema in the center. And if it will be necessary to pay some 200 million euros to force Manchester City to part with their star striker, a signing of Kylian Mbappé would also cost Real Madrid very dearly. Consequence of the 100 million euros signing bonus that will have to be paid to the Bondynois.

But other European leaders would be interested. First of all Liverpool, where Jürgen Klopp is a big fan of the top scorer in Ligue 1. But according to Sport1, Bayern Munich, who already recruited Harry Kane last summer, could get in on the act. Because Thomas Tuchel, who explained on Sunday that he was ready to come and pick up Kylian Mbappé by bike, is not the only one to think well of the Frenchman. The latter would be unanimous among the Bavarian leaders and the German champions could come forward as early as January when the Parisian number 7 will be free to discuss with the clubs of his choice.
