Paris Saint-Germain sporting director Leonardo has said that Real Madrid are interested in signing Kylian Mbappe in the summer transfer window.
Leonardo has said that PSG have turned down Spanish and European giants Madrid’s bid for Mbappe.
The PSG sporting director has added that the French giants do not plan to sell the 22-year-old France international forward this summer.
Mbappe is out of contract at PSG at the end of the season and has yet to agree on a new deal with the Ligue 1 outfit.
Leonardo said, as relayed by journalist Fabrizio Romano on Twitter: “Kylian Mbappe wants to join Real Madrid and we will not hold him back. We said no to Madrid’s first offer, but if our conditions are met, we’ll see.
“It seems like a strategy to try to et a no from us, to show that they have tried everything and to wait for a year to get Mbappe for free. Kylian always promised he wouldn’t leave for free.
“Real Madrid official offer is very far from what we want for Kyilian. Yes, it’s around €160m. It’s less than what we paid for him in 2017.
“We have no plans to talk to Real again for Mbappe. The deadline is August 31 at midnight. This is how the transfer window is: we keep him and we extend. But we’re not going to let him go for less than what we paid when we still owe Monaco money”.
Mbappe can be backed at 4/11 on Betfair to join Madrid in the summer transfer window.
