The future of Kylian Mbappe remains the topic as the first leg between Paris Saint-Germain, and Real Madrid occurs Tuesday night. The 23-year-old’s contract expires in June and the Spanish club is ready to pounce should he decide to decline a contract extension.

During the press conference for Karim Benzema, the striker stated that he would like to see Mbappe join Real Madrid one day. “It’s clear that it’s a very big game; playing against Kylian is special. As everyone knows, one day he can join Madrid. But the most important thing is to win,” Benzema said.

There’s no secret that Benzema will do his best to recruit his compatriot these next few months.
