Transfer: Incoming PSG Boss Enrique Makes Demand From Real Madrid Over Mbappe

Incoming Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique wants 22-year-old Real Madrid star Rodrygo as part of a deal to let Kylian Mbappe go the other way.

The Spanish manager is set to become the next manager at Parc des Princes.

According to Francisco Buyo of El Chiringuito, the former Barcelona coach Rodrygo is part of a deal that will see Mbappe join Real Madrid this summer.

Buyo said the Spanish manager holds the Brazilian in high regard but noted that a deal could be difficult.

The reporter also added that Los Blancos are firm in their valuation of Mbappe and are unwilling to pay over €150 million.

“Luis Enrique likes Rodrygo a lot and PSG would like to include him in a deal for Mbappé, but there is no possibility. Regarding a deal for Mbappé, Real Madrid will not exceed €150 million.”

Mbappe informed the Paris-based outfit of his decision to not trigger an extension in his contract, which would make him a free agent in the summer of 2024.
