Could Kylian Mbappe's arrival at Real Madrid bring even more stars to the Bernabeu?

Kylian Mbappe's move to Real Madrid has grabbed headlines, but another top player, Erling Haaland, reportedly harbors a long-term dream of joining Los Blancos.

Haaland to join Mbappe at Real Madrid?

According to Fichajes, Haaland is eager to play alongside Rodrygo, Kylian Mbappe, and Vinicius Junior.

Despite his success at Manchester City, the Norwegian is yet to commit to staying long-term, even hinting last season that his focus is not on extending his contract.

While it may seem like Haaland's chance to join Real Madrid has passed, a clause in his contract could allow him to leave for a set fee in the coming years, and that clause is one of the reasons City have been trying to renew: to get rid of the clause.

If Real Madrid's situation aligns with the clause's activation, it could be a golden opportunity for the club to sign Haaland.

More transfer news

One player the Los Blancos will not be signing any time soon is Leny Yoro, who has agreed a deal to join Manchester United from Lille.

The Spanish giants are not used to missing out on their targets but their refusal to meet the player's asking price means they must now look elsewhere for defensive reinforcements.
