Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema has again stated his desire to play with international teammate Kylian Mbappe at club level.
Mbappe was the subject of two offers from Real in the summer, but Paris Saint-Germain turned both down - much to the player's disappointment.
The transfer saga is only just beginning, though. Mbappe's current PSG deal expires in the summer and although the player remained coy about his future in a recent interview, plenty of other stakeholders have had their say.
Real manager Carlo Ancelotti and Benzema have both hinted that they expect Mbappe to join them in Madrid at the end of the season, but the player's mother has suggested that contract talks ate progressing well in the French capital.
The Parisians' sporting director Leonardo has also had his say, accusing Real of a lack of respect in their public courting of the forward.
