Kylian Mbappe has three requests for Real Madrid and Zinedine Zidane

Real Madrid are keen on signing Kylian Mbappe in the summer. The Paris Saint-Germain forward has just three requests for the club before signing.

Real Madrid is keen on bringing in Kylian Mbappe to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium since the last few years and that has been kept as no secret. The Whites’ president Florentino Perez himself confirmed interest in the World Cup winner during Zidane’s appointment earlier this month and stated that Neymar is on his radar as well.

Zinedine Zidane has demanded complete control over the departures and arrivals of players at the club and is likely to convince his compatriot into joining one of the world’s biggest clubs. While luring Mbappe could be an easy task, Zidane has also been handed a transfer budget of at least 300 million euros to negotiate with the cash-rich Paris Saint-Germain.

The Parisians are expected to demand in excess of 300 million euros for one of the world’s brightest prospects and Los Blancos certainly have that kind of money to spend. Kylian Mbappe is being considered as the front running dominator of the Ballon d’Or for the next few years to come after establishing himself so quickly across Europe.

Despite the 20-year-old insisting that he will be staying in Paris Saint-Germain, Zidane’s appointment could come as a twist in the tale, and even more due to the coach’s hesitation in landing Neymar ahead of Mbappe, or even Christian Eriksen and Eden Hazard for that matter. With PSG facing sanctions from the UEFA, one of the two may have to leave.

Now that Mbappe is aware of interest coming from Real Madrid, he has made three requests to the club, according to news. The first one of them is that he wants to become the club’s best paid player at 30 million euros annually, ahead of the likes of Sergio Ramos, Luka Modric, Gareth Bale and Toni Kroos.

The second request put forth by the Golden Boy is his choice at getting a jersey number of 7 or 10. Number 10 is occupied by Luka Modric and there is no chance that it is getting freed next year. Jersey number 7, which is worn by Mariano Diaz could be free next season if the Dominican leaves and Mbappe might inherit the historical digit worn by Cristiano Ronaldo, Raul Gonzalez, Emiliano Butragueno, Juanito and Raymond Kopa.

The third and final plea made by Kylian Mbappe is that Neymar does not arrive at the club, simply because the Brazil international is a lot more marketable than him at the moment and hence, ends up stealing the limelight. The ex-Monaco forward wants to be the focus of attraction and the main man at the club.
