Real Madrid board member Jose Manuel Otero Lastre has encouraged Kylian Mbappe to join Jude Bellingham at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Mbappe, 24, has been heavily linked with a switch to Los Blancos after signalling his intentions to leave Paris Saint-Germain when his contract expires at the end of the season.

Bellingham has excelled since exiting Borussia Dortmund in June and now Otero Lastre wants Mbappe to follow suit.

He told the Remontada Blanca Twitch channel: "We hope that Mbappe has the same thoughts as Bellingham.

"I trust that he will come. Mbappe will achieve glory when he comes to Real Madrid. He will win a Champions League someday.

"Now, it seems like PSG are less powerful than before because they no longer have such good players.

"Madrid guarantees security, a seriousness that brings results. I trust he will say yes when he is a free agent. Mbappe was born to play for Real Madrid."

Mbappe came close to joining Real over the summer but Otero Lastre went on to explain why a proposed deal did not materialise.

He added: "Mbappe had and did not have the opportunity to sign for Real Madrid this summer.

"To come, he would have had to give up some very high bonuses that he had already agreed with Paris Saint-Germain. Plus, there was a [transfer] fee to pay.

"The amount that would have had to be paid to have signed Mbappe a year earlier was crazy.

"It didn't make sense to sign Mbappe a year earlier, even though Madrid were broken in [Karim] Benzema's position."
