Real Madrid has the green light from Kylian Mbappe – there are a few things to be done

The move everyone assumed would happen is almost here. After Kylian Mbappe took the decisive step, the one he can't seem to get back, to tell Paris Saint-Germain CEO Nasser Al-Khelaifi that he will leave at the end of his contract, the Real Madrid is ready to move. There have been reports that Los Blancos will set up a deal for Mbappe now, Matteo Moretto he revealed to The Daily Briefing that the affair is near.

Mbappe communicated his decision to PSG on Tuesday, who in turn confirmed the news to the media with a circular on Thursday. Some reports have claimed that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez will not enter into talks Mbappe until he had made his decision clear to Mbappe, but Moretto says that an agreement is missing only a few small ends before Mbappe can sign on the line of points.

While few will allow themselves to pop the champagne in advance, having been burnt beforehand, it seems certain that Carlo Ancelotti can start making plans for his forward line with the Frenchman in place for next season. Real Madrid began pursuing Mbappe as a teenager in Monaco's academy, at the age of 13. Almost 13 years later, after rejecting Perez on three occasions, Mbappe appears to be shooting at the white of the Real Madrid.
