Real Madrid legend Hugo Sanchez believes Kylian Mbappe still wants to play for the club.
Los Blancos’ pursuit of the French international dominated the first weeks of the summer transfer window.
Mbappe has been linked with a move to the Spanish capital since 2020 with Real Madrid highlighting him as their primary target ahead of the 2022/23 season.
Despite appearing set to join the Spanish giants, Mbappe eventually opted to sign a contract extension until 2025 with Paris Saint-Germain.
However, Mbappe has left the door open on possibly making the move to Madrid further down the line, as his new deal only takes him up to 26, and Sanchez is confident the situation will reignite.
“Mbappé has not said a firm no to Madrid, he had to say ‘no’ due to social, political and family pressure”, as per reports from Radio Marca.
“But knowing him, I am sure that one day he will play for Real Madrid.”

Sanchez’s words will be music to the ears of Real Madrid fans as the Mexican is one of the deadliest goal scorers to wear the famous white shirt.
After joining from city rivals Atletico Madrid, Sanchez netted 208 goals in 283 games between 1985 and 1992, alongside winning five La Liga titles.
But I dont want him (and Im far from being the only one) as Vini has made him look redundant.
Ask yourself, who would you rather have, a player who bleeds white or a merc who twice turned the club down for more money? Vini is our prospect and we developed him into a superstar.
Yeah, thats a tough one.
At this point Id rather have Haaland. Mbappe has made his choice and all the best in PSG.
If the decision was up to us fans, I’m sure I’m not the only Real Fan that doesn’t want to see mbappe in our kit .Mbappe is world class no doubt , but he can stay in qsg all his life for all we care at this point. Vini is already world class and is only gonna get better, add haaland to take over from King Benz in a few years and we are good.
SO…NO TO MBAFRAUD!!
Real Madrid is bigger than any individual.We don’t need him and will never need him.There are better players out there hungry to play for Real Madrid.Not someone who used us to achieve his financial aim.
I don’t see Real Madrid ever talking about him or going after him again after the disrespect.
Hala Madrid!!!!!!
Exactly.
Wee need to be on the lookout for players willing to leave money on the table for the sake of honor of donning the great white shirt.
We have no use for players who use us as a leverage to get more paid.
We don’t need him any more the club is ahead of any player
Madrid is bigger than him
Mbape should go hell… Madrid is a club for betrayals. Vini is next Balloon d’or… After BigBez
Hmm
