Real Madrid are tipped to delay their plans to approach Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe after the two sides were drawn against one another in the Champions League last 16.
Having initially been pitted against Benfica in the first draw, Real were handed a mouth-watering tie with PSG in the redraw – a decision which left Los Blancos fuming.

On top of reunions with Keylor Navas, Achraf Hakimi, Sergio Ramos and Angel Di Maria, the match will also see Mbappe turn out against the side he could join just a few months later.
Mbappe is on course to leave PSG as a free agent in the summer and Real had planned to open formal negotiations in January when he enters the final six months of his contract and is eligible to sign a pre-contract agreement to secure his next move.
But AS note that Los Blancos are feeling more than a little uncomfortable about that now.
