The Los Blancos striker opened up to L’Equipe (via Managing Madrid), discussing playing with the PSG star at club level:

Benzema continued:

With 34 goals for Benzema and 28 goals for Mbappe so far this season, it is fairly easy to see how the duo would strike fear in the hearts of La Liga clubs. Both stars have been instrumental in the successes of their respective teams, guiding PSG and Real Madrid to domination in France and Spain.

Their synergy is hardly questionable, as both stars have excelled with the French national team, winning the UEFA Nations League together last year. They have played 11 times together since Benzema returned to the national side ahead of Euro 2020.

Real Madrid have long courted the young PSG star, but to no avail. The Parisian giants have no intentions of letting their prized possession leave the club, but with Mbappe’s contract expiring soon, the ball is in the star’s court.

While it is widely expected that the star will join Benzema at Madrid, the Parisians are doing everything in their power to keep him, including making him club captain.

Will Kylian Mbappe stay at PSG or move to Real Madrid?

There have been no end to the rumors about Kylian Mbappe’s future, and the star remains undecided about where he wants to spend next season.

The Parisian giants have made it clear that they will do almost anything to keep him, and recent reports have emerged about the star potentially extending his contract. This comes after earlier reports that Mbappe had already agreed to a pre-contract for a move to Real Madrid,

The star himself has spoken up (via Fabrizio Romano) about the uncertainties, noting that he has not made any choices yet.
