  • Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland are not in the plans of Real Madrid currently but the Los Blancos have a plan to sign the duo in the future
  • Mbappe signed a new three-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain while Haaland joined Manchester City on a five-year deal this summer
  • Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland are rated by many as the best forwards in the world

Spanish giants Real Madrid were interested in an audacious double move to sign France international Kylian Mbappe and Norwegian forward Erling Haaland in the summer transfer window.

Unfortunately, the reigning European champions were not able to pull off either of those moves.

Mbappe ended up extending his contract with Paris Saint-Germain for three years while Erling Haaland completed a move from Borussia Dortmund to Manchester City.

Both Mbappe and Haaland are currently the best forwards in world football, and the duo are having incredible campaigns for their respective clubs. Thus, it is not hard to understand why they would be linked with Real Madrid.

But Marca reports that Los Blancos are so far not concerned about the deadly pair at the moment.

The reports added that Florentino Perez is not thinking about them right now but will be ready to explore the possibilities of securing their signatures in the near future no matter how many clauses are inserted in their contracts.

However, according to El Espanol, cited by Be Soccer, Real Madrid are willing to capture both Mbappe and Haaland by the end of 2023.

The idea of Perez is to assemble a front three of Mbappe, Haaland and Vinicius Junior in what would be one of the most lethal strike force in football history.

Mbappe's deal with PSG will be due in 2024 while Haaland is willing switch camps from the Etihad to Santiago Bernabeu once Karim Benzema is no more part of the plans of Real Madrid.

It will be interesting to see what the future holds for Haaland and Mbappe though, as most people expect them to leave their current clubs in the not too distant future.

Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar: PSG Head Coach Is Considering Dropping One Star to Improve His Team

Sports Brief earlier reported that Paris Saint-Germain head coach Christophe Galtier is said to be preparing to make a bold decision of dropping one of Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe or Neymar in his subsequent games.

Galtier wants to add another defender to his formation, which means one of his marquee forwards will have to pay way.

In what will be seen as an extremely bold move considering the profiles of the star forwards, Daily Mail reports that Galtier is convinced that he needs to change the formation if PSG are to go far in the Champions League.
