Real Madrid set to sell SEVEN players to stump up the funds for Mbappe

Real Madrid are willing to sell seven players in a brutal summer clear out to stump up the funds for Kylian Mbappe.

The list of potential outgoings during the summer transfer window includes Brahim Diaz, Gareth Bale, Isco, Dani Ceballos, Luka Jovic, Takefusa Kubo and Jesus Vallejo.

The combined cost of the seven Real Madrid stars should raise enough capital to fund the Paris Saint-Germain forward - who is yet to agree new terms with the Ligue 1 side.

Real Madrid's potential outgoings this summer have not enjoyed successful 2020-2021 campaigns while out on loan.

According to Marca, Isco, Ceballos and Kubo are the three midfielders that will be up for sale this summer are struggling to prove their worth during the season.

Isco has fallen out of favour at Real Madrid, having failed to register a goal for the club in 27 appearances in all competitions during the 2020-2021 season.

As a result, he has been linked with a possible departure and could snapped up by Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool.

While Ceballos, who is currently on loan at Arsenal, is likely to be sold despite stating his desire to stay at the club next season.

Kubo joined Real Madrid from FC Tokyo in the summer of 2019, but failed to cement a place in the first-team and was subsequently sent of loan to Spanish clubs Villarreal and Getafe.

There was a lot of hype around the youngster when he arrived at Real, with many believing he could replicate Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo Goes' attacking prowess.

However, having struggled to live up to Real's expectations while on loan, Kubo has been linked with a possible move to Arsenal.

Diaz, Bale and Jovic are among the big names in the forward line that could be cast off this summer.

Diaz has had one of the most successful loan spells out of the all of the Real players but has still been linked with a summer transfer.

Such a decision could benefit Diaz as he has declared his desire to stay at AC Milan - saying 'I'm very happy to be here in Milan. It's an incredible city and the club is great,' he said. 'The fans give me a lot of affection and I feel great here.'

Bale, who has another year left on his contract, is another big name that will be sold this summer if the club can find anyone to pay his £650,000-a-week wages.

Should Real Madrid offload several of these players, they will stump up enough funds to afford their primary target Mbappe.

The Paris Saint-Germain forward has not yet agreed new terms with the Ligue 1 side and it is believed Real will present a final offer for the player this summer.

Real have been long-term admirers of Mbappe and he is said to be part of President Florentino Perez's vision for the club.

Although Real are eager to raise the capital to buy Mbappe, they have labelled the likes of Martin Odegaard as 'the exception' - admitting he won't be for sale this summer.
