El Chiringuito TV reports that if FC Barcelona beats PSG and eliminates them, the move of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid could be done quickly. Reports in the past suggested that the deal is very close to being done as Mbappé reportedly told PSG that he will leave the club for free and is set to sign for Real Madrid next season. The announcement that he will leave PSG or join Real Madrid is not official, but it has reportedly been postponed as PSG and Real Madrid still have a chance to face each other in the Champions League.

Some Real Madrid fans will feel weird to root for FC Barcelona to beat PSG since they are their biggest rivals. If the Catalan club does not eliminate PSG today in the Champions League quarterfinals, the announcement of Mbappé to Real Madrid will not only be delayed but could potentially be announced in June, before the Euros this summer.

Mbappé scored 13 goals in 11 away games in the knockout stages of the Champions League, which is a big concern for FC Barcelona, which is the home team today. Only Cristiano Ronaldo (23) and Karim Benzema (14) have scored more.

Mbappé himself said he wants his future to be resolved before the Euros in Germany so that he can be calm and focused on the international tournament with France. In the last international break last month, Mbappé was asked about the timing of his future being announced, whether it is him staying at PSG or joining Real Madrid next season. The PSG star said, "I think my future will be resolved before the Euros, yes."
