Real Madrid remain quietly confident that Kylian Mbappe will join them this summer, according to the Daily Mail.
However, Manchester City’s potential signing of Erling Haaland removes Real’s ‘Galactico’ alternative and leaves them trying not to ponder the consequences of going for both and ending up with neither.
Mbappe's Paris Saint-Germain deal runs out at the end of the season and he is yet to commit his future to the French side.
Real's interest in Haaland was never all-in, as it has been for Mbappe, in part due to the incredible form of Karim Benzema.
The 34-year-old has established himself as a firm candidate for the Ballon d’Or and is very much Real Madrid’s No 9.
