The reported approach by Real Madrid for Kylian Mbappe is apparently causing rancor within the club.

Reports indicate that senior figures at the Spanish club believe that Los Blancos should not be making attempts to sign the Frenchman.

Kylian Mbappe's contract with Paris Saint Germain expires at the end of the 2022/23 season, and this implies that he will be available as a free agent in the summer if he doesn't pen a new deal with the Parisians.

Mbappe has over time been linked with a move to Real Madrid, with the Spanish club being the major competitor for his signature when PSG signed him from Monaco in 2017.

Kylian Mbappe has also displayed his admiration for the Los Blancos side, with him being a huge fan of Portuguese great Cristiano Ronaldo.

However, it is uncertain if Mbappe will still be chased after by Real Madrid, with influential figures at the club said to be against the move.


Top members of Real Madrid feel that Victor Osimhen is the best bet for the club, as he will come in to sort out the club's issues in attack.

Osimhen is believed to be better suited to the style of Los Merengues, and financially, figures at the 14-time Champions League winners feel it will be best to doll out the cash in signing Osimhen than Mbappe.

Victor Osimhen has received lots of interest in recent years, with clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, Paris Saint Germain and Liverpool said to be keen on getting his services.

Osimhen has enjoyed a steady growth in his career and he is currently considered to be one of the best strikers in football.

The Nigeria International has speed, excellent finishing ability, great strength, and unreal athleticism.

Despite Napoli's struggle this campaign, he has still notched up 8 goals and 3 assists in 18 appearances for the club.

Victor Osimhen is the highest-scoring African in the history of the Serie A, and he has scored 67 goals and provided 17 assists in 119 appearances for the Neapolitans.

Internationally, Osimhen has scored 20 goals and provided 8 assists in 28 appearances thus far.

Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe is also regarded as one of the best players in the world and he is known for his dribbling, speed, and finishing abilities.

Mbappe finished 3rd in the 2023 Ballon d'Or award rankings, while he is aiming to win the 2023 FIFA The Best award, having made it to the top 3 shortlist.

Kylian Mbappe has scored 264 goals and provided 117 assists in 344 appearances so far in his career.

He has won nearly every trophy available to be won in his career, except the UEFA Champions League title and it is believed that his desire to join Real Madrid is due to his ambition to win the competition.
