The wheels for a possible Kylian Mbappé transfer to Real Madrid are beginning to take motion. Paris Saint-Germain wants to move off their 24-year-old star, who isn’t part of their project.
Mbappé isn’t on PSG’s summer tour to Japan and South Korea. As a result, the French giants are keen on having the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner leave. If PSG can ensure he exits these coming weeks, it will avoid Mbappé departing as a free agent next year.
MARCA reports that the transfer saga involving Mbappé and Real Madrid has taken a crucial turn as the Spanish giants assess the financial feasibility of the move.

Reports indicate that PSG has set an astronomical asking price of €250 million for their prized forward. While Real Madrid is eager to secure the services of the French superstar, they are determined to negotiate the price down to €225 million.
Otherwise, they are prepared to bide their time and wait for another year. The La Liga side knows it has the leverage in the negotiations since Mbappé only has eyes for Los Blancos.
As the summer transfer window approaches its conclusion, the clock is ticking for both clubs to resolve.
