Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid next summer? It’s not a certainty. The club is preparing a backup plan.

Haaland, Mbappé, Lautaro Martinez… Real Madrid is preparing for all possible scenarios for their next star striker. According to 90min and ESPN, as reported by Mundo Deportivo, Real Madrid has devised a new Plan B in case the transfer of Kylian Mbappé falls through.
