It seems the saga between Kylian Mbappe and Real Madrid has become a never-ending tale. This summer, fans witnessed the Frenchman get linked for a move to the Spanish capital, but sadly, the deal never ended up happening. While this forced the La Liga side to snub their interest in the PSG forward, it seems the club is still interested after all, as there was a reason behind their public rejection.

Furthermore, the discussions of his arrival were unexpectedly re-sparked by the Halloween costume worn by a star player from Madrid. However, what was Real Madrid’s “100% NO” statement for acquiring Mbappe’s services all about then?

Real Madrid quietly stay focused on getting Kylian Mbappe

The Kylian Mbappe-Real Madrid gossip seems to have become a romantic tale where the passionate betrothed isn’t ready to give up on their love. In this case, the Spanish club is an intense admirer, while Mbappe is the beloved. Just days ago, the club released an official statement to deny the fact that they are in negotiations with the 2018 World Cup winner. However, that was done for a much greater reason.

In reality, the La Liga giants are still interested in Mbappe and will try to sign him next summer. This comes from RMC Sport, which claims that contrary to reports suggesting Madrid’s lack of interest in Mbappe, it appears to be a strategic leak from the club itself. The intention behind this leak was to safeguard the club’s image after they failed to secure his signing this summer.
