Real Madrid are on the verge of completing their dream signing. Los Blancos have dreamt of roping in Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe for years now, and after facing multiple rejections, are now at the doorstep of the transfer.
Luis Enrique has stated on multiple occasions that the superstar is on his way out of the club. Only final details remain to be sorted with Real Madrid as word has it, for the PSG manager is already beginning to cut short Mbappe’s minutes in France.
A strong reaction
According to French journalist Daniel Riolo via Mundo Deportivo, PSG might just deal a like-for-like card after Real Madrid take away their crown jewel.
The journalist states that PSG will attempt to lure away Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr after losing Kylian Mbappe this summer. Whether they succeed or not in their attempt is a question for another day, but the fact is that they will attempt the massive heist.
PSG boast of an unparalleled financial muscle and are seemingly considering splashing big bucks for Vinicius.
It must be remembered that Vinicius signed a new long-term contract until 2027 not very long ago and is protected by a mammoth €1 billion release clause.

The journalist also adds that he does not see Vinicius succeeding in Ligue 1 and that it would be a massive error if he left the Spanish capital.
Planning the presentation
As revealed earlier today, Real Madrid are already working on Mbappe’s presentation as a new Galactico and the time that would best suit the event.
After all, his presentation is not going to be any mere event and is planned to be a grand spectacle at the Nuevo Santiago Bernabeu.
The exact date is not finalised, for it depends on whether either PSG or Real Madrid reach the Champions League final.
In either case, he will be presented as a new Galactico before the team’s first friendly game ahead of next season.
As for Vinicius, the possibility of him leaving Real Madrid for PSG is non-existent at this point.
