Madrid rule out Neymar move to focus on Mbappe?

Real Madrid have reportedly ruled themselves out of the running to land Neymar as they want to focus on signing his Paris Saint-Germain teammate Kylian Mbappe.

Neymar has been tipped to depart the Parc des Princes this summer, just two years after arriving for a world-record fee that still stands.

Madrid and his former club Barcelona were believed to be keen on the Brazilian, but AS reports that Los Blancos have had second thoughts and are going to focus all of their attention on Mbappe.

The 20-year-old finished as top scorer in Ligue 1 last season and was named Player of the Year, but he hinted last month that he is open to a move away from the club.

Zinedine Zidane's side have had a busy summer of transfer activity already, signing Eder Militao, Rodrygo Goes and Luka Jovic.
