This is all fun until Florentino decides to bring Haaland in as well
Would be a nightmare scenario for us.
Mbappe will never agree to play with Haaland. He clearly wants to be a franchise player.

Mbappe has played with Neymar for 4 years who has possession of the football much more than Haaland ever would. I'm sure he'd rather be lining up alongside him than Borja Mayoral after his 4000th loan spell expires.
Stunning that Real Madrid have 160m to spend.
If Fati is healthy for next half decade (big if) I would take that over them going outside Liga.
It is much easier to rebuild if the league and your rival is elite. You can bring super stars selling them to be face of the team against a super team.
We did that with R10, we were playing EL while RM was the Galacticos and Manu was elite and both were in for him.
RM done that in 2009 when we had Messi and treble winning team, gone for Kaka, CR7,Xabi, Benzema all in one summer.
Someone else will emerge, and we will be enticing for him.
PS: I am saying providing Fati is healthy because he will ease things in the short term and will be a good selling point as good young starter for other players to come, not saying he is same level as Halaand and Mpabbe.
Neymar is one of the best playmakers in history & makes tons of chances for his teammates. Which can't be said for Haaland.
If Mbappe (reportedly) feels like he's in the shadows of 34-year-old Messi & almost 30-year-old Neymar, then I doubt Mbappe is going to be happy at Real Madrid with a 22-year-old Haaland leading the line & banging in goals throughout 2020s.
It’s not like Cristiano - Benzema where Benzema willingly sacrificed his prime years for Cristiano. Haaland is a pure goalscorer. He’s smashing it in the back of the net, not creating space and other stuff for Mbappe week in week out.
