Florentino Pérez's statements about the signing of Mbappé

Amidst ongoing speculation about Kylian Mbappé's possible transfer to Real Madrid, club president Florentino Pérez has responded to a young fan who approached him on the street, providing further clues about his intentions.

While it was thought that the Mbappé-Real Madrid saga had come to an end, the reality is quite the opposite. As potential additions to the Bernabéu are being considered, fans continue to wonder if Florentino will make another attempt to sign Mbappé. In response to this question, the president was unequivocal.

"Yes, we will sign Mbappé, but not this year," were Florentino's words to a fan who asked him about the possibility of signing the French footballer. It should be noted that Mbappé's contract with his current club expires next season, and despite the events of last summer, Real Madrid is determined to have Kylian wearing the white shirt.

Although there is a pause in the attempts to sign Mbappé this season, uncertainty remains about when his arrival at the Madrid club will ultimately take place, and whether it will actually happen at Real Madrid.

They don't want to let him go

Given this situation, while there is still interest from both Real Madrid and Kylian Mbappé, the Paris Saint-Germain board is already working on offering him a contract renewal with the intention of keeping him at the team and staying with the Parisian club for a long time to come.
