Real Madrid Club wants preferential option

Real Madrid target Mbappe intends to continue at Monaco

Zidane: Mbappe was about to sign for Real Madrid

Though Monaco have no need to sell their young superstar, Kylian Mbappe, that hasn't stopped Real Madrid from making an approach.

Los Blancos are so keen to land the forward that the deal may even be done as early as this summer's transfer window.

News has reached the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu that the player could be available but he would only be sold to the highest bidder, and the amounts that are being spoken about are in the region of 100 million euros.

A super individual display at Signal Iduna Park against Borussia Dortmund, scoring two goals, shows that Mbappe doesn't feel the pressure despite being just 18-years-old.

The doubt for Real is whether he would respond equally as well for them or if it would be better to wait one more season.

Mbappe, who is represented by his father and a lawyer, has already made it clear that his desire, should he leave, would be to go to Real Madrid.

No rush to sell for Monaco

Monaco no longer have the need of years ago when they had to sell to survive.

Now they want to give some time to think over such a vital decision as the future of Mbappe, a player who is a goal away from equalling the best debut season in the Champions League.

With six currently, he is just one behind Thierry Henry's seven.

The Ligue 1 side also know that if they need money urgently they can sell Mendy, Lemar or Bakayoko.
