Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has gone cold on transfer targets Eden Hazard and Mohamed Salah.

Florentino is ready to revive his pursuit of PSG striker Kylian Mbappe, knowing a permanent deal with AS Monaco - to the tune of €180m - is still to be settled.

El Confidencial says Mbappe is the attacking signing the Real president wants - ahead of Chelsea midfielder Eden Hazard and Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah, along with Bayern Munich centre-forward Robert Lewandowski.

Florentino believes Salah will never match last season's 50-goal success, while Lewandowski's flat World Cup has left him unimpressed. And in Hazard's case, new coach Julen Lopetegui has assured Florentino they have enough options in the Belgian's role.
