Of course, Real Madrid must spend a lot of money if they still want Mbappe. But I agree that Mbappe deserves to be paid huge money since he is one of the best strikers in the world and he is still young, too. I am sure Real Madrid will take a big advantage if they successfully sign Mbappe in the next transfer window. Having Mbappe, Real Madrid attacking line will be very strong for the next season. And Real Madrid won't be afraid of their main striker for the next 10 years, Mbappe has a long future since he is still 24 years old.
I don't think Real Madrid actually need to have Mbappe. They already have Vini Jr. and Rodrygo who can play very good at two swings and can grow their skills more. Additionally and importantly, Mbappe does not want to play at the center or as a striker that is exactly what Real Madrid need to replace Benzema in one or two more years. So what are reasons for Real Madrid to spend big money for Mbappe and he will not want to play at a position they need at most?
It was just close and it was rejected even by Mbappe himself by choosing the abundance of money and authority that PSG gave to Mbappe.
At the moment, is Madrid going to take action that really isn't really necessary, in my opinion, because regardless of trying to approach Mbappe, it just seems like they haven't found any other options.
They can find each other in future but Real Madrid tried to say they are longer interested in Mbappe. However we don't know the truth behind their statements. They might send another to Mbappe if they see he is no longer happy in PSG and they can get him from a free transfer.
I know Mbappe is one of the best now but it does seem forced to just go back to Mbappe again and again.
He is not a player who can play well in all matches and against all situations. He needs his team-mates and good tactics to serve him playing well.
