It could be third time lucky for Madrid, after Paris Saint-Germain rejected an offer of €180 million ($190 million) for Mbappe in 2021. The person, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, also said PSG would not allow Mbappe to leave as a free agent. Mbappe posted on Twitter on Tuesday to dismiss a newspaper report saying he wants to join Madrid this summer. It means PSG face the prospect of him running down his contract and leaving for nothing to Madrid, or elsewhere. Given his stated ambition to win the Champions League and the Ballon d’Or, Mbappe seems unlikely to join them for a while yet.
