Real Madrid 'Respond' To Mbappe's Contract Demands

With Real Madrid's pursuit of Kylian Mbappe having been the topic of the football fraternity since the beginning of the season, Los Blancos have now reportedly responded to the Frenchman's latest contract demands.

The 23-year-old's current deal with Paris Saint-Germain is set to run out at the end of the season, and the Spanish giants are eager to prise Mbappe away from the Parc des Princes after their failed attempts to do so at the beginning of this campaign. It seems there is now a new twist in this saga, though. According to El Partidazo de Cope, the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner is now asking for €100 million more than what the two parties had initially agreed.

Real have reportedly declined Mbappe's wishes in this regard. Should the former AS Monaco starlet's wages prove a stumbling block for Los Blancos, this could open the door for PSG to offer an extension that would meet Mbappe's demands.

The player's mother is also believed to currently be in Qatar on vacation, and is set to speak to PSG chiefs as Les Parisiens look to extend their star player's five-year stay in the French capital.

The forward has been in tremendous form this season, having scored 33 goals and provided 22 assists in just 41 matches across all competitions for the French giants.
