In a surprising twist, Real Madrid has set its sights on retaining Kylian Mbappe in Paris, despite the 24-year-old star’s contract extension with PSG.

Rumor has it that a clause within Mbappe’s contract permits him to depart Paris for a predetermined fee next year.

According to reports from Sport newspaper, Real Madrid has already allocated a substantial budget to acquire Mbappe without engaging in negotiations with PSG, even planning to have him sign the contract as early as January 2024.

In response to this audacious move by Real Madrid, PSG is reportedly gearing up for a potential showdown, vowing to “avenge” any successful transfer of Mbappe to the La Liga giant.

To execute their plan, PSG’s top executives have identified a list of five Real Madrid players they intend to lure to Paris. The targeted players include Vinicius, Rodrygo, Eduardo Camavinga, Tchouameni, and Valverde.

This unexpected turn of events sets the stage for a high-stakes battle between two of Europe’s football giants, with the future of one of the sport’s brightest talents hanging in the balance. Football fans around the world eagerly await the outcome of this intriguing transfer saga.
