Real Madrid are Barcelona's arch-rivals, and signing Mbappe would mean they would have one of the world's best players in their ranks. The Blaugrana beat their bitter rivals to the title last season, and Mbappe would definitely help in bringing the title back to the Santiago Bernabéu.

However, some of the Barcelona players are unfazed by the Mbappe to Madrid rumors. In fact, captain Sergi Roberto boldly said that Barcelona have the best squad in the world, per Football Espana.

“For me, Barcelona have the best squad in the world. We have a template to fight for everything.”

“Real Madrid can sign whoever they want, I absolutely don’t care. We will do our own thing and we are going to fight to the death (to beat them).”
