Madrid is the only way for Mbappe to continue to extend his brilliant career but that doesn't mean Mbappe has an important role for Madrid. Now the position has reversed because since Mbappe rejected Madrid first offer everything has changed completely. Madrid can still look for other player options that are cheap and even more suitable. Rumors are circulating that players from Brazil are being targeted in the transfermarket next season and I hope that Madrid will continue to create stability in every line. Vinicius and Rodrygo just need to continue to develop and for strikers it's up to Florentino Perez to decide.
I actually prefer to say that Real Madrid is one of the paths for his career, because in this case it is not only Real Madrid that can provide a future for Mbappe, but there are other good clubs as well. But maybe it can be said that Real Madrid is the best choice for his career.
I haven't heard any more news about Perez now, usually he appears with his statement, but if he has said he wants to buy a player, then he will try to buy it even he is willing to spend deeply to realize his wishes. The news about Mbappe is still a wild ball, there is no certainty where he will go and could even stay. Unclear rumors will definitely be a seasoning when the transfer market comes, and that will definitely happen to Mbappe.
