Mbappe is set to make a long-expected move to Madrid, two years after making a shock u-turn, and spurning the opportunity to move to the Spanish club. This time, the club have real confidence that the France captain will play at the Santiago Bernabeu next season, <a href="https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1754501851070824588?s=20" target="_blank">according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano</a>.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The Madrid dressing room is eagerly awaiting Mbappe's arrival: "In the dressing room of Real Madrid, important players have the feeling that yes, this time, the club is going to make it happen... every single day they speak about Kylian Mbappe, and the feeling they have this time is that it's really, really close."

WHAT FABRIZIO ROMANO SAID

Mbappe may have expressed his interest in joining Madrid, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/psg-kylian-mbappe-real-madrid-stumbling-block-struggling-agree-financial-package/blt1fe546f23dcf4fa3" target="_blank">but there are still a number of roadblocks to be navigated</a>. PSG will reportedly want to collect some kind of fee for his departure, while Los Blancos are expected to pay a hefty signing bonus to make the deal happen.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Despite the talk, Mbappe has pledged to play out the rest of the season for the Parisians. They are currently top of Ligue 1, and are set to play Real Sociedad in the Champions League last 16 in mid-February. Los Blancos, meanwhile, are La Liga favourites, and could open up a convincing lead atop the table with a win over Girona this week.
