Florentino Pérez is one of the latest names in football to intervene regarding the future of PSG’s sought-after striker, Kylian Mbappé.
As expected, the Real Madrid boss was shy when talking about the interest of the Frenchman and Real Madrid in quotes broadcast by Fabrizio Romano on X (formerly Twitter).

He is a truly fabulous footballer and we have no doubt that he will make a splash wherever he ends up beyond the summer of 2024.
But it certainly won’t be at Anfield. I’m sorry!
