Former Real Madrid star Fabio Cannavaro has claimed that while his former side need someone like Kylian Mbappe, PSG will do everything in their power to keep their superstar. The Frenchman has been perpetually linked with a move away ever since his breakout season for AS Monaco and now PSG.

That has never stopped the 21-year-old from performing with Mbappe now considered to be amongst the best in his position. While that might be too much pressure for some players, the youngster has taken it on and then some with him slowly building his brand at PSG. It has also seen him out do fellow superstar Neymar over the last few years with the Brazilian struggling to cope with his own problems.

But with great performances comes great interest and for Mbappe it has been two fold over the last few years especially with Real Madrid building their own super-team. The Los Blancos have been his top suitors and Italian legend Fabio Cannavaro has claimed that the move would be perfect. The former Real Madrid star also admitted however, that PSG will and should do everything they can to keep Mbappe at the club.

"Real Madrid need players like Mbappe, a young star who could follow in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo. It's normal that Madrid want to sign him but it also has to be taken into account that PSG's owners don't need the money. They are ambitious and they want to win the Champions League. I think it will be difficult for Madrid to get him. The president of PSG is a person who wants to win, I know them well and they will fight tooth and nail to keep Mbappe," Cannavaro told AS.
