La Liga Boss Tebas Convinced Mbappe Will Join Real Madrid Next Season
La Liga president Javier Tebas is convinced Paris Saint Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe will join Real Madrid at the end of the season.
Mbappe’s contract at the Parc des Princes expires this summer and he has shown no intentions of extending his stay in the French capital.
The 23-year-old is being courted by a host of top European clubs but Real Madrid remain his likeliest destination if he were to make a move.
In fact, the 13-time European champions had two big-money moves rejected by PSG last summer for Mbappe, who later revealed he had asked to leave the French side.
Mbappe showed no affinity towards Real Madrid when he put in a man-of-the-match performance against his potential future employers in the UEFA Champions League round of 16 first leg on Tuesday, scoring a late winner against Carlo Ancelotti’s side in a 1-0 win.
Tebas is sure though that the 2018 World Cup winner will be calling the Santiago Bernabeu stadium his new home from the 2022/2023 season.
"Madrid will get Mbappe and Haaland as the others [Barcelona and Juventus] are half [financially] ruined," Tebas told Europa Press.
"That Mbappe comes is great news for LaLiga. It would be a joy for LaLiga. It's the best thing that could happen to LaLiga."
Mbappe has scored 22 goals in 32 appearances for PSG this season.
