La Liga president convinced Mbappe will join Real Madrid this summer

La Liga president Javier Tebas is ready to welcome Kylian Mbappe to Spain with open arms this summer.

Although Mbappe recently said he doesn’t know what the future holds as he nears the end of his Paris Saint-Germain contract, Tebas is convinced the French star will be one of the significant arrivals at Real Madrid after the season.

“Madrid will get Mbappe and (Erling) Haaland as the others (Barcelona and Juventus) are half (financially) ruined,” Tebas said, as translated by ESPN’s Adriana Garcia.

“That Mbappe comes is great news for La Liga. It would be a joy for La Liga. It’s the best thing that could happen to La Liga.”

After clarifying that he doesn’t have any information about Mbappe’s decision, Tebas added: “But I’ve seen few cases of players who have six months left on their contracts that have not renewed their contracts and then went on to continue at the club.”

Despite reports that Mbappe could be open to signing a short-term deal to stay in Paris for at least another season, Real Madrid are apparently confident that they can convince him to move to the Santiago Bernabeu on a free transfer.

Real Madrid pushed hard to sign Mbappe last summer but abandoned their pursuit after PSG reportedly rejected an offer worth up to €200-million.

Tebas’ comments come just days after Mbappe scored in injury time to lift PSG to a 1-0 victory over Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 matchup.

Like Mbappe, there are also strong indications that Haaland will leave Borussia Dortmund this summer when clubs can activate the €75-million release clause in his contract.
