  • Kylian Mbappé is not ruling out a future switch to Real Madrid despite rejecting a bid from the Los Blancos in the summer
  • The 23-year-old France international was reportedly on the cusp of joining Real after agreeing on a verbal agreement but made a U-turn to sign a three-year contract extension with PSG
  • Despite the protracted summer transfer saga between Mbappe and Madrid, the Frenchman has started the 2022-23 season on a flying note - scoring seven goals in five Ligue 1 outings

Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappé has refused to rule out the possibility of joining Real Madrid despite snubbing the Spanish giants to extend his stay with the Parisians earlier in the summer.

Mbappé was heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid in the summer but opted to sign a lucrative three-year contract extension with PSG.

The Frenchman's decision to stay with the French champions ruffled a lot of feathers in Madrid, with the reigning European champions feeling misled by the player over his intentions of joining the club and that they wasted a significant amount of time in pursuing his signature.

Mbappé and Real Madrid were involved in a protracted transfer saga earlier in the summer, with the Frenchman reported to be on the verge of joining the La Liga outfit.

However, the 2018 World Cup winner ended up extending his deal with Paris Saint-Germain for three years after his previous contract with the Parisians expired in June.
