Kylian Mbappe is the kind of player who would easily walk into the first team of any world-class club at the moment. Many pundits have lauded the 24-year-old as a more complete player than any other player in his class, and his recent displays have seen him likened to a younger Cristiano Ronaldo with a blistering pace.
With Real Madrid reportedly set to end their interest in the PSG forward, many world-class clubs have registered an interest in the former Monaco star, and Thomas Tuchel, who managed the player at PSG, would like to reunite with him at Bayern despite having a red-hot Harry Kane at his disposal.
Thomas Tuchel on Kylian Mbappe transfer
It is every manager’s dream to have world-class players on their side, and Kylian Mbappe is one of the best in the world, making him an attractive prospect for any club in the world. The player’s dream transfer to Real Madrid appears to be over, according to recent reports, which has granted other clubs the chance to sign him.
Premier League clubs have registered their interest in the star forward, and some are prepared to start presenting contract offers to the PSG superstar. However, Tuchel has jokingly expressed his interest in Kylian Mbappe, although a move may not be feasible right now as they only recently spent a huge sum on bringing Harry Kane to Germany.
“Do I want to sign Kylian Mbappe? Yes, yes, he’s going to play for us; that’s clear,” Tuchel told Canal Plus while he laughed at his own comments. “He’s extraordinary. If he wants to come, I’ll go pick him up by bike! But I think that’s not going to be a reality,” the former PSG boss added.
Bayern Munich adding Kylian Mbappe to their ranks would effectively increase the monopoly of dominance in the German Bundesliga as they would be too good for any other domestic team to handle.
Harry Kane’s performance at Bayern this season
Bayern Munich knew they needed another strong presence up top this season after losing Robert Lewandowski to Barcelona in the summer of 2022. After the failed transfer of Sadio Mane, who left the club to join Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League a year later, the Bavarians went all out for Harry Kane as they spent a hefty sum on the England captain to bring him from Tottenham.
The move is working well for all parties as Harry Kane usurped Cristiano Ronaldo to become the most in-form goalscorer in 2023. The Englishman scored another brace in Bayern’s weekend Bundesliga game, taking his league tally for the season to 17 goals in 11 games for his new club.
He has also scored four goals in the UEFA Champions League, where he trails Atleti’s Alvaro Morata and Manchester United’s Rasmus Hojlund, who have both scored five goals in the competition this season.
His brace against FC Heidenheim ensured he already surpassed the league’s top scorer for the whole of last season just 11 games into the season. At this pace, the striker is set to score more than 30 league goals.
