PSG are ready to exact revenge on Real Madrid for signing Kylian Mbappe on a free transfer last summer, according to reports in Spain.
Mbappe caused a sensation when he departed the Parc des Princes side to hook up with Los Blancos in a high-profile transfer that saw the Ligue 1 champions get nothing in return as the France international was out of contract.

The saga has infuriated the leaders at PSG and has prompted an unseemly court case between Mbappe and his former club that continues to burn.

Real Madrid, it claims, believe that PSG will steal some of their best young talent from the youth academy.
“They’re aware of third-party movements involving some of the top players in the youth academy,” it claims. “PSG are exploring the possibility of signing one of the gems from the Real Madrid youth academy.”
Real Madrid’s academy in impressive form
Real Madrid have suffered an injury crisis that has forced many of their young players into the first-team picture, and it is claimed this has led to greater transfer interest in these players. PSG are exploring the possibility of landing one of these players, who are said to be aware of the interest of the French giants.
As such, “alarm bells” have been set off in the Spanish capital.
At the recent Al-Kass International Cup, Real Madrid’s U17 team defeated PSG 3-0 in the final, having lost 2-1 to the same opponents in the qualifying stage. Los Blancos youngster Bryan Bugarin was named the tournament’s outstanding player.
Al-Khelaifi was in the locker rooms after the game to congratulate both sets of players, so the PSG supremo certainly knows what Real Madrid’s youngsters are capable of.
