Real Madrid have returned with an improved offer for Kylian Mbappe with the side willing to break the bank for the Frenchman
Despite seeing PSG take no time in spurning their 160 million euro for Kylian Mbappe, Real Madrid are refusing to be fazed. The La Liga club has returned with an improved bid for the French player with the side sending in a second bid today, one which amounts to 170 million euro.
Real Madrid Send Second Bid As The Club Ups The Ante Over Transfer Of Kylian Mbappe
The $200 million bid is unlikely to lead to a change of heart though with PSG’s Leonardo Araujo only recently talking about how Real Madrid’s valuation was way off. Speaking yesterday ensuing Real Madrid’s initial first offer for Mbappe, an irate PSG Sporting Director had hit out at Real Madrid with him speaking about the La Liga club making an illegal approach for the player.
However, with Araujo admitting that PSG were resigned to losing Mbappe, a switch to Real Madrid is only a matter of time. With Mbappe being in the last year of his contract at the Paris club, PSG will not want to risk losing the player for free in 2022.
Also, with the club only having recently signed Lionel Messi, any chance of Mbappe extending his contract is extremely unlikely. The player is said to have been irked by no longer being the center of attention at the club, a development which has only increased his urge to leave his current employers.
Incase Mbappe does end up wearing the Real Madrid white colors this season, his transfer could spark a merry-go-round with PSG said to be traversing for Cristiano Ronaldo to fill in Mbappe’s place.
