REAL MADRID could pay one BILLION Euros to land Kylian Mbappe.
The Spanish giants believe an extraordinary financial package can prise France’s World Cup final hat-trick scorer from PSG by the summer.
Mbappe is under contract until 2024 and Gazzetta.it reckon any move would total one billion euros over four years – about £877million.
That includes close to £552m in wages and a transfer fee of around £132m, plus signing-on fees and commission.
Real president Florentino Perez is still keen on Mbappe, despite surprisingly missing out on him last summer.
The pacy striker, who was 24 on Tuesday, won the Golden Boot in Qatar with eight goals.

And Real Madrid legend Guti turned up the pressure on Perez to deliver.
The ex-Spain midfielder insists the Bernabeu needs Mbappe – and he needs them.
Guti said: “The best have to stay at Real Madrid.
“Seeing him play for PSG makes me angry, and not only for Real but also for La Liga.

“La Liga must always have the best in the world.
“Mbappe is a player made for Real, and then if he wants to do what Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have done, he has to play for Real Madrid because he won’t make it for PSG.
“Madrid must go and get him immediately, now.
“There are good players on the market, but none like him. Yes, Haaland maybe, but a step below. Mbappe, he is unique.
“Only he can give what Messi gave to Barcelona or Ronaldo to Madrid. Nobody else.”
Messi’s double helped Argentina lift the World Cup last Sunday, but unlucky loser Mbappe seems sure to shatter more records at the top level.
He helped France win the trophy in 2018 and now has 12 goals in 14 games from just two tournaments.
German Miroslav Klose is the World Cup’s all-time top scorer, with 16 from 24 matches.
