Real Madrid players are reportedly excited at the potential of Kylian Mbappe moving to the club this summer. Mbappe is a long-standing target for Real, dating back to his time at Monaco. The Frenchman opted to join Paris Saint-Germain in 2017 but has now entered the final year of his contract with the Ligue 1 club.

Spanish outlet Marca claims Los Blancos have raised £170million (€200m) through player sales in the last few transfer windows, with Martin Odegaard's impending move to Arsenal the latest high-profile exit.
Marca has also revealed how Mbappe's potential move to Real is the talk of the dressing room.
Mbappe built a relationship with Real striker Karim Benzema during France's participation at Euro 2020 this summer.
He has also created a close bond with Sergio Ramos, who has joined PSG after leaving Real at the end of last season.

"And something even better may come out of it as a consequence. Maybe a player from Paris will join us... I don't know."
Speaking earlier this month, Spanish football expert Graham Hunter insisted Mbappe would join Real either this summer or next.
Speaking on Reach PLC's Transfer Window podcast, Hunter said: "Florentino Perez's idea about getting Mbappe is lodged in his brain. He tends to get his way.
"He will accept having to fight a long war rather than a short battle and it's going to be this summer or next summer that Mbappe's a Real Madrid player, of that I'm certain.
"That takes a lot of money if there's going to be a transfer fee now, or if there's going to be a loan now."
