      As reported by RMC Sport, a statement from his team read: “There’s no agreement on Kylian future.

      Real Madrid have been pushing to sign Mbappe since his Monaco days.
      The La Liga giants came close to sealing a deal in 2022, but the 25-year-old penned a new two-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain instead.
      However, Carlo Ancelotti will finally get his man in July.
      Mbappe is set to jump straight into the Italian’s starting line-up when he arrives at the Santiago Bernabeu, joining the likes of Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Jr.

      The World Cup winner regularly plays on the left wing for his national team, but he will likely move into the middle for Real Madrid to accommodate Vinicius and Rodrygo.
      Bellingham, who joined Los Blancos in a huge £115million transfer last summer, is set to keep his spot in midfield.
      The England international is currently leading the La Liga Golden Boot race with 13 goals in 17 games.
      Mbappe’s proposed partnership with Bellingham will likely strike fear into any defence in Europe.

      How Real Madrid could line up with Mbappe
      Although they are yet to pen new deals with Real Madrid, Toni Kroos and Luka Modric could stay at the Santiago Bernabeu beyond the summer.
      Both players will be able to provide five-star service to Mbappe in attack.
      And with Thibaut Courtois set to return from an ACL injury ahead of the 2024-25 season, Los Blancos will still be defensively solid.
      David Alaba, who joined the club in 2021, is also set to return from his ACL injury in time for the new season.
      Alternatively, Ancelotti could bolster his squad even more by adding some extra summer signings to the mix.
      Real Madrid have expressed an interest in signing Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle, but they face competition from PSG.
      Guimaraes could be a perfect replacement for either Kroos or Modric in midfield.
      Federico Valverde will also step up should either of the two players leave.

      And he is expected to leave the Ligue 1 giants at the end of the season.
      Real Madrid remain desperate to land the World Cup winner – after failed attempts in 2017 and again in 2022.
      However, The Times state Real have placed a January deadline on Mbappe signing a pre-contract agreement for the 2024-25 season to secure his services.
      But the report adds the forward is unimpressed by Los Blancos’ approach to the latest negotiations – and he has told friends he will not be forced into making a premature decision.

      The Times adds that Mbappe wants to explore his other options first.
      And that includes moving to England, with Liverpool a genuine possible destination.
      The Qatar 2022 Golden Boot winner has openly admitted his admiration for Jurgen Klopp’s style of play and held talks with Liverpool in 2022.
      Mbappe could be a suitable superstar replacement for Mo Salah if the Egyptian hero does go to Saudi Arabia this summer.

      The Saudi Pro League, meanwhile, are expected to make another approach for the Frenchman.
      Mbappe was the subject of a world-record £259million transfer bid from Al-Hilal last year but opted against the move which would have seen him become the highest-paid footballer on the planet.
      Following the saga in the summer, Mbappe informed PSG he would not sign the 12-month extension option on his current contract.
      That saw him exiled from the first-team squad and he was only able to return after agreeing to forego a series of bonuses worth £68m.
      Mbappe – who has 22 goals in 23 games since his reintroduction – discussed his future with PSG president Nasser al-Khelaifi ahead of Wednesday’s Trophee des Champions victory over Toulouse.
      However, he left the door open to where he will be playing his football next term.
      Mbappe told reporters: “No. I’m very, very motivated for this year. It is very important.
      “As I said, we have got titles to go after and we have already taken one.
      “After that, I haven’t made up my mind yet. I have not made a choice.”

      Mbappe possesses a player option to extend his deal by a further 12 months, although last summer he wrote to club chiefs informing them that he had “no intention” of doing so.
      The forward was subsequently exiled from PSG’s pre-season tour, with the Ligue 1 champions even accepting a world-record £259million bid from Al-Hilal for their star man.
      After snubbing a move to Saudi Arabia, Mbappe later returned to PSG’s first team and has been in electric form ever since.
