Mbappé 'whispers in the ear' of a France star to get him to sign with Real Madrid

The UEFA Nations League has ended, so now it's time to gradually start thinking about the return of club activity.

Real Madrid will return to training this Monday, which will mark the beginning of the Xabi Alonso era.

However, Kylian Mbappé's name remains at the center of attention, since the Merengue "9" excelled in the UEFA Nations League.

The French forward was one of the most outstanding against Spain and also against Germany, although he also did important work off the field, something that's being widely discussed and that has Rayan Cherki at the center of the conversation.

Mbappé's protégé

The young footballer from Olympique de Lyon, who's set to be transferred this summer, also stood out in the UEFA Nations League.

This, as expected, has led many to call for Real Madrid to make an effort for Rayan Cherki, especially considering that he was recommended in the past by Zinedine Zidane himself, who has always seen great talent in this gem and made that clear to Florentino Pérez.

"We try to support him as best we can so he feels like himself and does what he knows how to do on the field. His qualities are obvious, we knew it and never doubted it. He's going to give us something. We wanted him to feel good mentally against Spain so his feet could do the talking on the field," said Kylian Mbappé at a press conference.

The words of the Bondy native make it clear that he's acting as captain with Rayan Cherki.

Moreover, many have seen this protective gesture as a way to recruit him for Real Madrid.

This is something that's being widely discussed on social media, especially because everything the Parisian does is accompanied by a lot of media attention.

The "problem" for Cherki is that the club doesn't have him as a priority, since Xabi Alonso has been very clear about his objectives for the summer.

Madrid's priority is to strengthen the defense and the midfield with a Kroos-type profile, so this option is ruled out.
