Real Madrid could wait until next summer for Kylian Mbappe

Real Madrid could decide until next summer to sign Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe, according to Sky Sports. The Spanish and European giants are keen on signing the France international before the summer transfer window closes next week, but they are unable to reach an agreement with PSG yet.

Madrid have had their initial bid for the 22-year-old turned down by PSG. Los Blancos then made a second offer of £145.6 million for the former AS Monaco. The former Spanish and European giants are beginning to think that PSG are not being practical in their demand and could drop their pursuit this summer.

Los Blancos could try to reach a pre-contract agreement with Mbappe in January and then snap him up on a free transfer next summer when he is out of contract at PSG. The Frenchman himself is reported to have to PSG that he wants to play for Madrid.
