Kylian Mbappe transfer could be sorted soon

Real Madrid have been linked with a host of names in recent months, and it appears that the Spanish giants are growing increasingly confident of signing the Paris Saint Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe.

According to a report via Daily Mail, the French international’s future will be decided after PSG’s Champions League clash against Real Madrid next year, and the Spanish outfit are in pole position to secure his services.

The World Cup winner is nearing the end of his contract at the French club, and he has refused to sign an extension so far.

It is highly likely that the French outfit will lose the player at the end of the season, and it wouldn’t be surprising if Real Madrid managed to agree on a pre-contract agreement with the player on the 1st of January.

Mbappe will be allowed to secure a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs next month, and it will be interesting to see if the transfer is sorted within the next few weeks.

Rudiger expected to join

The Spanish giants are thought to be keen on signing the Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger as well.

According to a report from the Telegraph, contract talks between the German international and Chelsea have not progressed, and he has rejected the club’s offer.

The 28-year-old has established himself as one of the best defenders in the league, and he could prove to be a quality acquisition for Real Madrid.

The defender will be a free agent at the end of this season, and Chelsea should look to cash in on him if he refuses to sign a new deal.

Losing a player of his calibre on a free transfer at the end of the season would be devastating for the Blues. They would be wise to cash in on him now and reinvest the money into the playing squad during the January transfer window.

The report from Telegraph adds that Real Madrid players expect the German to join on a free transfer in the summer.

Real Madrid keen on selling Bale, Marcelo and Isco

Meanwhile, the Spanish giants are looking to offload some of their fringe players as well, and the likes of Gareth Bale and Isco are thought to be the main candidates to leave the club when the transfer window reopens in January.

According to Marca, Gareth Bale, Marcelo, and Isco are three players Real Madrid are willing to listen to offers for next month.

It remains to be seen whether the Spanish giants can offload their deadwood and bring in the necessary reinforcements next month.
