Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema expects PSG ace Kylian Mbappe to join the Spanish giants.

Mbappe comes off contract in June and saw a Real offer rising to €180m rejected by PSG before Tuesday's transfer deadline.

Benzema said, "Mbappé and I understand each other very well on and off the pitch, and it is clear that I would like him to be with me at Real Madrid, which is the best club in the world.

"But you have to respect his club.

"I am sure that one day he will play for Madrid."
