Real Madrid Boss, Ancelotti insisted Real Madrid’s planning for next summer was “already done” but did not disclose whether the club have made a fresh bid for Kylian Mbappe.

Real Madrid could hire the French star as a free agent at the end of the season.

“I have a good relationship with Branchini. I prefer not to comment on this.”
