The patience and perseverance Real Madrid are showing is undoubtedly appreciable. The club has made multiple attempts to acquire Kylian Mbappe for a long time now. But they are reportedly expected not to persist any further if the superstar doesn’t join them on their next try. Reports suggest that this could be the Frenchman’s last chance to hop on a flight to play in a Real Madrid kit.
It’s worth noting that Kylian Mbappe has been one of the most influential players of this generation. Many clubs will be interested in the 2018 World Cup winner. However, the player himself seems to be interested in Santiago Bernabeu, but he hasn’t made the move yet, which makes things complicated for both parties.

Everything, apart from his club future, seems to be going well for Kylian Mbappe. It could be assumed that the clubs are more desperate to sign him than vice versa. Nevertheless, Carlo Ancelotti and his team will accept no more rejections or excuses from the player’s representatives if they fail to approve the move this time. It will be a hook or crook for both parties, as reported by Marca.

The Paris Saint-Germain star has somehow evaded joining the 14-time European Champions since 2021. In the first attempt, Madrid went all in with a monstrous offer of $236 million, which was ignored by PSG. The French club, strong-headed to keep their icon, somehow managed to convince him to extend the contract for two more years, leaving Real Madrid furious. But that did not stop them from making repeated attempts to sign him.
Earlier this summer, the club gave another shot, but the unrealistic $272 million release price was too expensive even for one of the most successful clubs. Real Madrid rejected the offer outright. On the other side, the star has taken a nibble at the bait, reserving a house in the Spanish capital and also being in contact with the president, Florentino Perez. But will the Spanish giants catch the fish? That is the big question.

Although they have considered taking another chance for Kylian Mbappe, Real Madrid would not be ready to pay the demanded fee. The player’s estimated value could prove expensive for the club, as they already have to cover the cost of their stadium’s renovation. However, to their advantage, reports suggest that there is a decline in the striker’s market value.

After their last statement to reject reports of negotiations with the Frenchman, the soccer world was doubtful if Madrid would go again for him. But the two parties are on the lookout for the best for themselves, which may lead to the continuation of the Mbappe-Madrid transfer saga.
