Liverpool star Ibrahima Konate has revealed that he gets calls from compatriot Kylian Mbappe every two hours to sign for Real Madrid. The French defender is into the final year of his contract and from January he will be able to hold pre-contract talks with clubs abroad. The Reds, on the other hand, are determined to offer him a new deal to avoid another situation like Trent Alexander-Arnold.

After registering the 400th goal of his remarkable career, Kylian Mbappe is ready to aim for "the unreal". The Real Madrid superstar is among those watching on from afar as Portuguese GOAT Cristiano Ronaldo closes in on 1,000 career goals. That milestone feels a long way off for Mbappe, but the France international is prepared to set the most ambitious of targets.

Kylian Mbappe has played down comparisons to Cristiano Ronaldo and insisted that the Portuguese forward remains the 'reference' at Real Madrid. The French striker has been in devastating form for Los Blancos this season, scoring 13 goals in 11 La Liga games, and is once again showing why he is one of the very best players in the world and a worthy comparison to the legendary Ronaldo.

Jude Bellingham had a hand in both goals, and Kylian Mbappe continued his excellent run of form as Real Madrid beat Barcelona 2-1 in the first Clasico of the season. It was hardly a legendary iteration of this famous fixture, but two first-half goals from Los Blancos were enough to see off the short-handed Blaugrana.

Kylian Mbappe has broken his silence on his relationship with Real Madrid team-mate Vinicius Junior, claiming that the media outlets are responsible for the speculation about the duo not getting along. The Frenchman believes that publications "sell a lot of papers" by spreading false narratives about their dynamic, adding that he has absolutely no issues with Vini Jr.
