Kylian Mbappe gets Real Madrid transfer love bomb as Bernabeu icon pushes for PSG star

Real Madrid star Luka Modric says he'd love to play alongside Kylian Mbappe as the Spanish giants continue to court the superstar.

The World Cup winner is out of contract at Paris Saint-Germain in the summer and it seems his options are the Bernabeu or remaining in France.

PSG are believed to have put a mammonth €100million (£83m) per season contract on the table, an offer which Madrid can't possibly match.

However, Mbappe has made no secret of his desire to one day pull on the white shirt and the Merengues had an offer rejected for him last summer.

And it seems they're looking to woo him to Spain, with Modric speaking openly about how much he'd enjoy playing with the star.

PSG are in Madrid on Wednesday for their Champions League second leg, with Mbappe an injury doubt.

Speaking ahead of the match Modric said: "We all want to play with great players and Mbappé is one of those.

"Of course I'd like to play with Mbappe but we'll see what happens.

"He's a PSG player but we'll see what happens in the future. It's hard to talk about players who aren't here because other teams can get angry or misinterpret what you say.

"But I don't know a player who wouldn't want him as a team-mate."
