Florentino Perez says it is “out of the question” for Real Madrid to sign Kylian Mbappe in January, but did not rule out a move for the forward further down the line.

It was reported last week that Mbappe wants to leave Paris Saint-Germain as he feels “betrayed” by the club only five months after signing a new three-year deal.

The France international had been strongly linked with a move to Madrid as a free agent at the end of last season after his contract expired, but instead opted to stay with the Ligue 1 champions.

Mbappe has rubbished reports he wants to make a PSG exit and Madrid president Perez says the European champions are not planning to make a bid for the 23-year-old.

He told El Larguero: “It’s not that I’m bored about Mbappe, it’s that I don’t even read it. We already had a good summer, so that’s out of the question.

“You can’t know anything about the future, but the Real Madrid players are progressing spectacularly in the forward areas. Rodrygo and Vinicius [Junior] still have a lifetime to prosper. I see them both as Ballon d’Or [winners].”

Perez added: “Real Madrid only looks at the players it has and we are delighted with them. We are not doing badly with the number of young players we have. We have a very promising future.”

The Madrid supremo hailed Karim Benzema after the Los Blancos captain won the Ballon d’Or for the first time on Monday.

He said: “I’m happy because at last he deserves to be the best player in the world. He has been the best for three or four years.

“He is a nine who is a mixture of Ronaldo Nazario and Zinedine Zidane. He is a nine who does these two jobs at the same time. He moves forward like Zidane did and shoots on goal like Ronaldo Nazario did.”
