Kylian Mbappe asked PSG to sign now-Real Madrid ace in the summer – report | OneFootball

Kylian Mbappe was one of the players involved in a huge transfer saga in the summer, with a potential move to Real Madrid looking inevitable. In the end, though, he ended up staying at Paris Saint-Germain, putting pen to the biggest contract in the history of the sport.

The French forward was blessed with a lot of additional benefits, too, including transfer power. He wanted the French club to sign big names in the summer that would heavily help with their sports project.

According to a report relayed by SPORT, Mbappe had tried to use his power this summer in the hopes of signing Aurelien Tchouameni in the summer.

He was, however, informed, that Real Madrid had already signed the player.

This is not the first time this happened to PSG and Mbappe, with the same report claiming that the World Cup winner tried to convince Frenkie de Jong to snub Barcelona in favour of the French capital.

The player was surprised to see players prioritising moves to better sports projects over PSG’s money-heavy transfer moves.

Mbappe had also tried to convince Robert Lewandowski to sign for PSG over Barcelona, but failed on that front, too.

Tchouameni is an integral part of Real Madrid’s team, replacing Casemiro at defensive midfield. He has also been one of the best midfielders through the 2022 World Cup, with France cruising to the Round of 16 with him and Adrien Rabiot at the helm.
