Amid Kylian Mbappe’s imminent switch to Real Madrid, the French prodigy has reportedly lent his insight to the club’s future, suggesting the recruitment of Paris Saint-Germain and Portugal midfielder, Vitinha, as a replacement for departing stalwart Luka Modric.
As Mbappe finalizes his move from PSG upon the expiration of his contract, attention turns to the Bernabeu where uncertainty clouds Modric’s future as his longstanding association with Los Blancos nears its conclusion.
In light of this, reports from Fichajes indicate that Mbappe has singled out Vitinha for consideration, citing the 24-year-old’s impressive season statistics of nine goals and five assists in 43 appearances across various competitions.
With Modric’s departure on the horizon, Vitinha presents Real Madrid with a promising prospect, showcasing adaptability and fostering a burgeoning partnership with Mbappe, thus offering the club a seamless transition into the post-Modric era.
Modric joined Real Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur back in 2012.
