Kylian Mbappe’s rumoured arrival at Real Madrid has excited some of the Spanish club's superstars, especially Brazilian forward Vinicius Junior.

PSG have also removed the 24-year-old forward’s posters from the Parc des Princes after they stopped selling his jerseys at their stores as they accuse him of already reaching an agreement with Real Madrid.

According to PSG Talk, Vinicius has now urged Real Madrid to reach an agreement with PSG as soon as possible, as he wishes to play alongside Mbappe at Santiago Bernabeu this season.

PSG have informed Mbappe that he will be benched all season if he refuses to leave the Ligue 1 club this summer, with Real Madrid his preferred destination, although the Spanish club is yet to make a bid for the forward.

Real Madrid prepare for Mbappe arrival

Meanwhile, Real Madrid is reportedly preparing to sign Kylian Mbappe after claims that the Spanish side is working on video clips and footage for the Frenchman’s unveiling, Football Transfers reports.

After declining to extend his contract, which was set to expire next year, Mbappe is anticipated to depart Paris Saint-Germain this summer as the attacker is now not a member of the first squad.

Mbappe has drawn significant interest from a number of European teams, including Chelsea, Barcelona, and a host of others, but the 24-year-old is only seriously considering a move to Real Madrid after turning down the Spaniards last summer.

PSG remove Kylian Mbappe’s mural

Earlier, Sports Brief reported PSG have taken a significant step by dismantling a prominent mural featuring the discontented iconic figure, Kylian Mbappe, from their stadium, while also discontinuing the sale of his jerseys.

This move by the reigning Ligue 1 champions escalates the tense situation surrounding their prized player, as reports suggest he may have reached an agreement with Real Madrid.

The 24-year-old found himself relegated to training with the B team on Monday due to his refusal to extend his contract beyond the upcoming summer.
