The departures of Karim Benzema, Marco Asensio, Mariano Diaz and Eden Hazard mean that Real Madrid's transfer window is set to be the busiest they've had in recent years, especially in the forward line.

In addition to the arrivals of Jude Bellingham, Brahim Diaz and Fran Garcia, there is also the search for a striker.

Harry Kane appears in pole position as the big favorite for Carlo Ancelotti, but a large section of the fanbase still want Kylian Mbappe.

Florentino Perez discusses Mbappe

This weekend, Twitter user @soymadr7dismo has posted a video that has quickly gone viral.

In it, a fan approaches Florentino Perez and asks him if he is going to sign Mbappe, who Real Madrid were seriously linked to over the past couple of seasons before the Frenchman decided to sign a new contract at PSG last summer.

The Real Madrid president's response has surprised many, as he was open about his desire to sign the young forward.

"Yes, but not this year," was Perez's response to the question of whether Real Madrid would sign the superstar.

With the market hotting up and the renovation of the Real Madrid squad underway, Mbappe's name is back in the spotlight following Florentino Perez's remark.
