Real Madrid are looking to sort out the Kylian Mbappé situation within the first two weeks of August before the new LaLiga season starts, ESPN reports.
The LaLiga side are however still waiting for Mbappe or his club Paris Saint-Germain, to make the first move.
PSG have made it clear that they would be open to a deal this summer to avoid Mbappé leaving on a free transfer next year, but the two clubs have not yet held talks with just two weeks left before the 2023-24 campaigns kick off in Spain and France.
Madrid remain hopeful, however, and sources have told ESPN that the club are ready to get a deal done if PSG show that they are willing to open negotiations.
The Spanish giants are aware that a deal would cost over €200 million including variables, and they would offer Mbappé a six-year contract until 2029. Madrid would like Mbappé’s contract to match that of Jude Bellingham, who arrived this summer in a deal worth €103 million plus another 30% in variables.
