Revealed: Real Madrid to submit FINAL offer for Kylian Mbappe in January transfer window - but it will come with one major catch for PSG superstar as Erling Haaland backup plan remains in place

Madrid are ready to make a final offer for Mbappe in January, but will only give the forward until the 15th of the month to make a decision on his future, according to <a href="https://as.com/futbol/primera/mbappe-limite-15-de-enero-n/" target="_blank">AS</a>. Mbappe is out of contract in the summer and will be free to negotiate with Los Blancos. Madrid have already missed out on Mbappe once, and are determined not to do so again. However, if he does not agree a deal by the club's deadline, then they will switch their focus to Manchester City's Erling Haaland instead.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Mbappe remains a crucial figure for PSG and has scored 15 goals in 13 Ligue 1 appearances for the club so far this season. The <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/psg-stance-kylian-mbappe-revealed-nasser-al-khelaifi-club-president-reacts-real-madrid-statement-2024-transfer/blt83bbeadc19f4a3cd#csc7e429f94af3cba1" target="_blank">French giants remain keen to keep hold of Mbappe</a> but have not yet been able to reach an agreement on a new contract. It remains to be seen what Mbappe will do next, but Madrid appear to be willing to move on swiftly if he does not agree a switch to the Santiago Bernabeu. Haaland is said to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/erling-haaland-agent-madrid-real-transfer-talks-man-city-representative-quizzed-santiago-bernabeu-visit/blt3797b7da53182296#cs5fe59a6cb35bfde1" target="_blank">have a release clause in his Manchester City contract</a> that can be triggered by teams outside of England in 2024.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Haaland has just broken Mbappe's record to become the youngest player to score 40 goals in the Champions League at the age of 23 years and 130 days. The Manchester City striker is also the fastest player to achieve the landmark, needing just 35 games to hit the milestone in Europe's premier club competition.

DID YOU KNOW?

Mbappe's future could become clearer in the coming weeks, with the France international free to negotiate a pre-contract agreement with other clubs from January 1st if he has not renewed with PSG. The 24-year-old has long been Madrid's top target, but will have to make a decision on his future quickly if he is to link up with the likes of Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior in the Spanish capital.
