Kylian Mbappe is now worth around €300 million (£264m/$326m), but a summer switch to Real Madrid is "impossible" amid the coronavirus crisis, according to Ferland Mendy's agent Yvan Le Mee.
Le Mee, the man who brokered Mendy's move to Santiago Bernabeu from Lyon last July, believes Mbappe will end up completing a move to Madrid, but not until after the European Championship is completed in 2021.
"Mbappe, in a normal context, without this horrible virus or the economic problem that is coming, you could think that he was going to sign for Madrid this summer, because it also does not seem that he is going to renew his contract, and he has two years left on his contract," Mee told Marca .
"But with all this, it seems impossible to me that a club now spends what Mbappe costs. Because, if Neymar is worth €222 million, Kylian is worth €300m, because he is younger and is just as good, extraordinary.
"He is going to be the best striker in the world and I think he is going to want to play for the best club in the world, which is Madrid, and for one of his idols to train him, which is Zidane.
"Also today there is no great competition in Madrid's attack. It is where there is more demand. They have a great striker like [Karim] Benzema, but he is approaching the last years of his career.
"Today there is more competition in PSG's attack than in Madrid's and they would surely find a place for him without a problem.
"This year there will be no big transfers because they are not going to do crazy things and I think it will come after the Euros."
