Real Madrid intend to present their case to Mbappe in the near future, as Florentino Perez fights to secure his dream signing. However, they won’t be fooled around with, as was the case in 2022 when Mbappe U-turned at the last minute to sign a contract extension at PSG.

The situation could take a new twist, as Relevo have reported that Fayza Lamari, Mbappe’s mother, is once again his agent. She had been removed from the role after FIFA introduced a new license rules of agents, but this regulation has been suspended for the time being.

It remains to be seen whether this development has a big say on Mbappe’s decision. Real Madrid want him, but they won’t be messed around, so for an agreement to be reached, there is a ticking clock that has been set.
