Real Madrid on red alert as Kylian Mbappe 'hands in transfer request' at PSG
Posted Wednesday, June 05, 2019 by Dailystar.co.uk
Zinedine Zidane is plotting a major squad overhaul this summer following a disastrous campaign.
Real could only finish third in La Liga, 19 points behind Barcelona, and they were dumped out of the Champions League last 16 by Ajax.
Los Blancos want more firepower in their attack and they secured the £52m signing of striker Luka Jovic from Eintracht Frankfurt today.
Reports today have suggested Real have reached an agreement with Chelsea for the signing of Eden Hazard.
They could complete a dream front three by poaching Kylian Mbappe from PSG.
According to El Chiringuito TV, the Frenchman has handed in a transfer request.
And with Zidane expected to be handed a huge budget, Real will be closely monitoring Mbappe's situation.

Mbappe dropped a huge hint last month that his future could lie elsewhere.
"It's very important moment for me, I come to a turning point in my career," he said.
"I have discovered a lot here, and I feel it is perhaps the moment to have more responsibility.
"I hope that can maybe be at Paris Saint-Germain, that would be a great pleasure, or perhaps elsewhere with a new project."

And amid reports that Real were lining up a £200m bid, PSG boss Thomas Tuchel admitted he may struggle to hang on to Mbappe and fellow star Neymar.
"As a coach, I do want them to continue, but this is football, we are not naive," he said.
"Many clubs want to transfer many players and the market is crazy, but if you ask me, the coach, yes, I want them here next season.
"But if they are not, we will find solutions."
