Christian Karembeu has warned Real Madrid they need to be quick if they want to sign Kylian Mbappe as their replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner departed the Bernabeu earlier this week to complete a €100m (£88m/$117m) move to Juventus, stunning the football world in the process.
Madrid now have a void to fill, with the likes of Chelsea star Eden Hazard, PSG’s Neymar and Mbappe apparently among their preferred candidates to replace Ronaldo.
Karembeu, a World Cup winner with France in 1998 but also a player for Real Madrid during his professional career, does not think that capturing the 19-year-old will be a straightforward exercise.
