Given that Alvaro Morata could seal his move away from the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu to Manchester United this week, Real Madrid's directors are already working on restocking the attacking department and contract has been made with Kylian Mbappe's family. First, Los Blancos confirmed that the 18-year-old is keen to join the club, before president Florentino Perez spoke this week with the player's father, who occasionally assumes an agent-like role.
Although the forward has always said that he'll have the final word, it is his father who will negotiate his future and he has been sceptical of a move to the European champions due to fears over a possible lack of playing time.
According to Telefoot, Perez explained to the father what role the forward would have in Zinedine Zidane's squad and how he could progress up the pecking order in the coming years. Perez wants to be sure that all of those in Mbappe's circle are keen on the move before a concrete offer is made to Monaco. Then, it shouldn't take long to make the transfer happen, even if the Ligue 1 champions are thought to be offering him a new contract.
