Real Madrid will revisit their interest in Paris Saint-Germain’s Kylian Mbappé starting Monday. The Spanish side can sign the 25-year-old to a pre-contract, with his contract expiring in June 2024.
However, Los Blancos have reportedly learned from past mistakes. Reports suggest that their offer will come with a deadline. Diario AS journalist Carmen Colino confirmed that Real Madrid will give Mbappé 15 days to decide.

She adds that Real Madrid will not wait for the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner to decide. If this is true, then it seems Florentino Pérez and Co. want to take a firm stance and apply pressure to the situation.
Why does Real Madrid have a deadline?
The question some might ask themselves is, why does Real Madrid insist on setting a deadline? Juanma Rodríguez stated that the La Liga side is giving him 15 days because they don’t trust what the Frenchman says.

Mbappé has rejected Real Madrid in the past, so it shouldn’t surprise that they want to avoid looking foolish again. Will this deadline stance work? Well, football fans won’t have to wait long to find out.
