Barca picked up the national crown last weekend, and though Madrid won the Copa del Rey and remain in the thick of the Champions League fight at the semi-final stage, Los Blancos want an improvement next term.

Real Madrid target Mbappe and Davies transfers

Madrid are now ready to revisit a move for Kylian Mbappe, having been snubbed by the France international forward last summer, when he was a free agent.

Mbappe, though, would not come cheap. FootballTransfers values the 24-year-old at €139m while PSG are unlikely to sell given that Lionel Messi is liable to leave the club – with Barcelona front runners for the Argentine – and they would prefer Neymar to depart.

Although the Frenchman only has one year left on his contract, PSG were willing to risk him departing on a free transfer in 2022 and are likely to take a similar attitude this summer. Indeed, the Ligue 1 leaders even knocked a €200m bid less than two years ago for their star man.

Similarly, Real Madrid want to sign Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich to bolster their left-back area – a position that they are known to have earmarked for strengthening on the summer.

The 22-year-old Canada international is valued at around €65m and, like Mbappe, is considered a player unsellable by his club. Madrid would, therefore, have to pay significantly over the odds to secure his signature.

A dream transfer window for Real Madrid would mean signing Bellingham, Mbappe and Davies, according to the report, but that would necessitate a spend of at least €300m to get all three – and it’s unclear how they can make that possible.
