  • La Liga president Javier Tebas is angling for Kylian Mbappe to play in Spain
  • The 60-year-old believes Real Madrid is the only club for the PSG marksman
  • Mbappe has reportedly dreamed of playing for the Spanish giants in the future

Javier Tebas has expressed his utmost desire to see Paris Saint-Germain superstar, Kylian Mbappe play in the Spanish top tier in the near future.

The French sensation was on the cusp of joining Real Madrid last summer until he made a sensational U-turn to ink a new deal with Les Parisiens.

Since the 24-year-old opted against joining Los Blancos, he has become PSG's record goal-scorer while the Spanish giants have added another Champions League and league title to their trophy haul.

However, the La Liga chief is still envisaging a union between Mbappe and Real Madrid.

"The only La Liga club that could sign Mbappe is Real Madrid. I would like him to play in La Liga," Tebas told Movistar, as quoted by Tribuna.

This is not the first time Tebas has suggested Mbappe join Madrid, having earlier made it clear that only the White Angels could land Kylian Mbappe and Manchester City goal-poacher, Erling Haaland.

Perhaps the 60-year-old administrator is sorely missing another big name in the Spanish top flight following the departures of superstars, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

Tebas eyes Mbappe-Madrid union

Sports Brief previously reported on Tebas hoping Mbappe and Haaland will someday play in Spain and knowing which team they could join.

The two forwards are among the most valuable strikers in world football due to their current form for PSG and Manchester City, respectively.

According to Sportskeeda, Tebas believes that if both stars were to switch to Spain in the future, only Real Madrid could sign them both on.

Tebas slams EPL transfer spending

Sports Brief also reported on Tebas aiming a swipe at the Premier League, sensationally claiming it is not a financially sustainable model.

The 60-year-old has been a controversial figure in European football, continually criticising Man City and Paris Saint-Germain for their funding.

Tebas' criticism of the English top flight league stems from last summer's spend by clubs from the most marketable football league in the world.
