The Kylian Mbappe Real Madrid transfer deal could be imminent, according to former Los Blancos president Ramon Calderon.
The France international wants out of Paris Saint-Germain at the moment, the club’s sporting director Leonardo confirmed to RMC Sport yesterday, while Le Parisien now report that Real Madrid face paying around £188million to persuade the Ligue 1 giants to let their star player go.
Calderon will have struck a few major transfers in his time as Real Madrid president, and he told talkSPORT in the clip below that, in his experience, this has the feel of a deal that could be struck imminently…
? “If #RealMadrid want him now, they have to pay that kind of money for Mbappe.”
? “In my experience, the signing is imminent! Sometimes with something so expensive and important, you have to pay!”
