On the back of Mbappe's awe-inspiring performances at the Mundial, he has resurrected Madrid's interest in him, which literally died after inking a lucrative contract extension with PSG.

According to Guti, who made 542 appearances for Real Madrid, Mbappe should be the topmost priority for the club.

“Real Madrid have to go for Kylian Mbappé. The best players have to play in Real Madrid,” the 46-year-old retired footballer said as quoted by MadridXtra.
