The Kylian Mbappe-Real Marid transfer saga is all but settled. Although this is his final season at Paris Saint Germain, there’s no official statement confirming his next club. Amid the delay in announcement, Mbappe has reportedly revealed when he would announce his decision. But in the meanwhile, his France teammate, Aurelien Tchouameni may have provided some relief to the fans with his recent statement citing Mbappe’s “greatness.”

Looks like it is just not the fans, even the players at Santiago Bernabeu want the Frenchman in the team soon. According to reports, Tchouameni stated, “The Spaniards are really aware of the player that Kylian is.” Further emphasizing the player Mbappe is and what the 2018 World Cup winner is capable of, he added, “when they really see him on a daily basis, they will realize the greatness of him as a player,” hinting at a chance of him playing for the Los Blancos.

Mbappe gained interest from rivals, FC Barcelona too, but he did not consider them. On the other hand, Tchoumeni has been a close friend of the PSG sensation. Earlier, Tchouameni claimed that Mbappe tried to get him to sign for PSG in 2022, before his move from Monaco to Madrid. And if reports are to be believed, Mbappe will be joining him next season.

Meanwhile, the situation could be a little more complicated than it looks. Real Madrid recently revealed that it will not release players for the upcoming Olympics in Paris which the 2022 World Cup Golden Boot winner dreams to play in. However, the star also confessed that he is ready to let it go if he’s not allowed to and the decision will depend on ‘one person’ that he did not reveal. Nevertheless, the 26-year-old will have to give an official confirmation soon and conclude the saga.
