re: Why didn't Real buy Mbappe? Could they really not afford him?

Because of the emergence of Asensio and the fact that they didn't want to make an 18 year old the second highest earner on the team. You don't mess up that dressing room like that.

Looks like it's working out swimmingly for him. He should be in fine form for the world cup. I understand Real promoting from within, but this seems like a real swing and a miss.

Reminds me of Kevin De Bruyne.
Bayern wanted him from Wolfsburg, but wanted to wait one more season. City came in and offered higher wages and more money up front for the transfer.
KDB and M'Bappe also had huge clauses in their Nike contracts that if they went to a high profile Nike team like PSG, City, Barca, then they'd received a hefty pay day.
