Transfers to be made in January transfer window could be effective enough to change the fate of the Champions League winner maybe. I can't imagine what would happen in case of seeing Real Madrid's signing a deal with Mbappe. However even if this happens he wouldn't join the team right away of course. They would need to wait for him until the end of the season unless they buy his clause to bring him immediately.

However truthfully I don't expect Real Madrid to sign him in January because probably he would like to wait for the end of the season to make his decision on his future.  Smiley  I expect PSG to be eliminated early again which would make things really difficult for convincing Mbappe to stay.

I don't think that transfers in January have ever been of such a significant importance that they helped a team win the Champions League. If that was the case, I wonder what type of player you are talking about. Of course, if Real Madrid would sign Mbappe in January and he would score several goals in the final round of the Champions League, then it would perhaps be true, but since that won't happen, I doubt that any transfer in January would literally be responsible for the Champions League trophy at the end of the season.

I would agree only about the transfer of Kylian Mbappe from PSG to Real Madrid to be a game changer for the club in all competitions including Champions League. Real Madrid need more firepower in the attack line to help Bellingham scoring more and more goals to guarantee winning most of the game.
Until yesterday I had some hope that the player might join Real Madrid in this winter transfer window but from what I heard today, it appears to be quite difficult to happen with PSG willing to offer him a new and better contract!
In the other available options, I find it hard for a team to acquire other talented player that could help them win the title. Even signing a couple of players will not be possible for most of the teams in my opinion apart from Manchester United which might try to improve its squad but it is already too late.

But PSG is qualified for the next round and they are playing against Real Sociedad. What is the point in selling Mbappe now when PSG has the only goal to finally win the Champions League. If they decided to sell him now, everything they did to convince him to extend his contract some time ago, it would have made any sense at all. That is why I was confused to see people here express their opinion that Mbappe could leave PSG in winter. No, he won't leave PSG and he will give this a last shot to win the Champions League trophy and then in summer he will leave the club.
