Real Madrid have spent a while dreaming about the signing of Kylian Mbappe. The Frenchman was pictured with Madrid legend Sergio Ramos, now of PSG, as the two continued their pre-season preparations for the French side.

The world of football changes so often that, sometimes, it's impossible to predict its movements. Madrid fans around the world have spent weeks dreaming about a possible photo which, eventually, took place far away from the Santiago Bernabeu.

It would have involved a shot featuring 'Los Blancos' captain Sergio Ramos alongside forward Kylian Mbappe, ideally in the facilities of Valdebebas in the Spanish capital. Instead, the picture was taken in Paris.

Ramos didn't hesitate to have his photo taken with the sought-after French youngster in just his first day back from his holidays, as the Spaniard is well aware that Real Madrid have been pursuing him for some time.

The post on social media didn't take long to become viral, which featured the two players alongside a smiling emoji and the phrase "this is Paris". For his part, Mbappe returned to training earlier than planned with his future still far from being resolved.

Thus, a move to Real Madrid still can't be ruled out, however there will certainly be no photo with ex-captain Sergio Ramos when he lands.
