  • Paris Saint-Germain have set a staggering €200 million asking price on Kylian Mbappe
  • The 24-year-old French forward has been identified as a transfer target for Real Madrid
  • Mbappe’s current contract with the reigning Ligue 1 champions is set to expire in 2024

Real Madrid will have to break their current transfer record if they insist on signing wantaway French forward, Kylian Mbappe, from Paris Saint-Germain this summer.

The 24-year-old French forward has been a key target for Los Blancos, with the club's president, Florentino Perez, confident they will sign the 2022 World Cup Golden Boot winner soon.

According to Sportskeeda, PSG has slapped a €200 million price tag on Mbappe as they try to offload the disgruntled star, who still has one year left on his current deal.

The Frenchman, who is rated at €120mil by Real Madrid, sparked outrage after sending a letter to PSG stating he will not extend his contract with the Ligue 1 champions beyond the summer of 2024, when his deal expires.

Mbappe, who joined PSG for €180mil in 2018, scored 41 goals and provided 10 assists in 43 games across all competitions last season, as the Parisians strolled to the league title.

Mbappe’s mother wants Real Madrid

Meanwhile, Madrid Universal reports that Mbappe’s mother and his representative, Fayza Lamari, is pushing for her 24-year-old son to join Real Madrid this summer.

The World Cup winner's contract has one year left, with PSG reportedly eager to cash in over letting him go for free in 2024, with Los Blancos lurking for his signature on the sidelines.

Mbappe's mother is currently in charge of the talks for her son to go to the Spanish league, whether the move happens this summer or in the seasons to follow.

Does Mbappe deserve Ballon d’Or?

Earlier, Sports Brief reported on Mbappe's confidence in winning the Ballon d'Or for the first time after experiencing another remarkable year with both his club and national team.

Although he was unable to secure a second World Cup title in 2022, and PSG failed to win the Champions League, his goal-scoring abilities led Les Parisiens to victory in Ligue 1.

At the individual level, Mbappe concluded the season as the leading goal-scorer for his club and country, netting an impressive 54 goals - the same as Man City's Erling Haaland.
