Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti 'does not know' whether his club will sign Paris Saint-Germain attacker Kylian Mbappe this summer.

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has said that he 'does not know' whether his club will sign Paris Saint-Germain attacker Kylian Mbappe before the end of this summer's transfer window.

Mbappe's contract with PSG is due to expire next June, and it is believed that he is desperate to secure a move to the Bernabeu before the current window closes for business.

A recent report claimed that Real Madrid will make an £145m approach for the France international on August 30 in the hope of convincing the Ligue 1 giants to sell.

Ancelotti has said that he 'does not care' whether the World Cup winner arrives in the Spanish capital, as he is happy with his current squad.

"I don't know if he will arrive. I don't care what will happen. I have a very good and very strong squad. They give me a lot of happiness. I am focused on that. Let's wait these 10 days and now I am focused on the team that I have," Ancelotti told reporters.

"This squad, as it is, can compete for any trophy. We have very big stars here. I'm not going to name all of them, but we have a lot of top players. This squad is full of stars. We have to work together. The star, if he is able to compete for the others, wins titles."

PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino recently said that he is expecting the 22-year-old to remain with the club for the 2021-22 campaign even if he does not sign a new deal.
