Zidane: Mbappé "fine where he is" amid Real Madrid rumours
Kylian Mbappé is reportedly a target for Real Madrid, but the Bernabéu boss has said the youngster is in the right place at Paris Saint-Germain.
Zinedine Zidane appears to have cast doubt on a potential Real Madrid move for Kylian Mbappé, claiming the forward is "fine" at Paris Saint-Germain.
After winning the World Cup with France, Mbappé starred for PSG in 2018-19, scoring 39 goals in all competitions.
The 20-year-old is reportedly - along with club-mate Neymar - a target for Madrid, who look set to undergo a rebuild following a disappointing campaign in both LaLiga and the Champions League.
However, Madrid president Florentino Perez has dismissed rumours of moves for PSG's star duo and Zidane also looks to have ruled out an approach for Mbappé.
Zidane plays a straight bat on Mbappé
1997 - With 32 goals in Ligue 1 2018/19, Kylian Mbappé is the first U21 player to score more than 30 goals in a single season in the top 5 leagues since Ronaldo with Barcelona in 1997 (34 goals). Prodigious. @KMbappe @PSG_English pic.twitter.com/owK186wqOY

"He's fine where he is," Zidane told reporters after playing in a charity match in Bordeaux.
As well as Mbappe and Neymar, Madrid have been heavily linked with a move for Chelsea's Eden Hazard, while significant doubts remain over Gareth Bale's future at Santiago Bernabeu.
