As Real Madrid coach, Carlo Ancelotti, rules out signing Kylian Mbappe before the transfer window closes next week, he has said he is not afraid of the Saudi wind that is blowing away key players from Europe..
Ancelotti said on Thursday as the Paris St Germain forward continues to be linked with the LaLiga club.
Ancelotti said that Real are unlikely to do any more transfer business in the current window which closes on Sept. 1.
When asked about France striker Mbappe, he told reporters: “No, I rule it out 100 percent.
“I think our squad is closed and our players are thinking about our season.”
The transfer window remains open in Saudi Arabia beyond Sept. 1, which means clubs from the Gulf nation could still poach Europe’s best players, but the Real boss was not concerned.
“Someone may change their mind, but I am not afraid of that,” he added ahead of Real’s LaLiga game at Celta Vigo on Friday.
