In: Kylian Mbappé – Forward
The biggest fish of them all this summer is Kylian Mbappé.
Mbappé is a French superstar already at the young age of 18. After having a world class season already with Monaco, it appears that Kylian will be on the move. With numerous teams reportedly already having offered record fees north of $125M, it will be very hard for Monaco to pass up on his sale.

The next step for Monaco and Mbappé is to really figure where Kylian thinks he likes most, which at this point and time, is most likely Real with him growing up as a fan of Ronaldo and the club.
The Mbappé sweepstakes seem like it is just beginning, and quite frankly it wouldn’t surprise me if his fee runs up to almost $180M. If Real lands him, it will probably be because of the funds freed up from selling Rodriguez and Morata.
Real Madrid could possibly loan Mbappé back to Monaco. The reason for the possible loan spell back is simple, Los Blancos still have Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo at Mbappé’s two best positions.
It will be every interesting how this one will pan out.
