Zinedine Zidane has come out to say that Paris Saint-Germain star, Kylian Mbappe’s dream is still to play for Real Madrid.
The youngster netted 33 goals in 29 Ligue 1 appearances for PSG last year but when the season ended, he said he was open to a “new project”
Ex Monaco vice-president, Vadim Vasilyev recently claimed that Mbappe told him he joined PSG because it was too early for him to join Real Madrid.
Asked if Kylian will feature for Madrid in the future, Zidane had this to say, “I don’t know, it’s the player who decides.
“At the moment he plays for Paris Saint-Germain, we’ll see in the future if that changes. I know he always said his dream is to play for Real Madrid.”
On Madrid’s UCL campaign thus far, “We’re always happy to play at home but there’s a responsibility as well because it’s a Champions League match and we want to play a good game and for that we have to be well prepared,” Zidane said of Gala’s impending visit.
“We always go into these games with the same idea, the same attitude. We’re in good shape, we know what we have to do and I’m not too worried whether it’s like a final or not.
“I think you just have to think about going out and playing a good game, hope the fans are with you and go out and try to win the game and hope everyone plays well.
“We always need the fans with us and I think they always are with us. They want to see their team play well and win and that’s what we need, we need the fans to help us and be with us in the difficult moments of a match, that’s what it’s about.
“The other day [a 0-0 draw at home to Real Betis in La Liga on Saturday] it was difficult for us to get a goal but we need the fans with us and the players need the fans with us.”
