Real Madrid president Florentino Perez said he will do everything possible so the LaLiga giants do not lose their "rightful place" as one of the world's leading clubs amid strong links with Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe and Borussia Dortmund sensation Erling Haaland. (More Football News)
Madrid have long been linked with PSG's Mbappe, while in-demand Dortmund forward Haaland has emerged as a transfer target in the Spanish capital.
While discussing the new European Super League, which he is chairman of, Perez addressed the speculation regarding Mbappe and Haaland.
"The fans always ask me to buy Mbappe," Perez told El Chiringuito. "My answer? I say: don't worry... the truth is that he is a good player, yes.
"I've never talked to Mbappe. At least now... I don't know what's going to happen to his contract with PSG."
On Haaland, who has also been linked with Barcelona, Manchester City, Manchester United, PSG, Chelsea, Liverpool and Juventus, Perez added: "Haaland's father has visited our training ground Valdebebas, yes.
"Everyone has always had the same reaction: never seen anything like this.
"Haaland and Mbappe are two excellent players but what [Lionel] Messi and [Cristiano] Ronaldo have done is incredible."
Perez, though, ruled out a reunion with the club's all-time leading goalscorer Cristiano Ronaldo in Madrid.
Ronaldo – who left Madrid for Juventus in 2018 – has been tipped to depart Turin and a Los Blancos comeback has emerged as a possible option for the five-time Ballon d'Or winner.
But Perez said: "Cristiano Ronaldo will not come back at Real Madrid.
"It does not makes sense, he has a contract with Juventus. I love him a lot, he has given us a lot."
Perez was also asked about the future of Madrid captain Sergio Ramos, who is out of contract at the end of the season.
The 35-year-old Ramos is yet to re-sign at the Santiago Bernabeu amid reported interest from the likes of United, PSG and Chelsea.
"I love Sergio Ramos, but we are in a very bad financial situation at Real Madrid," added Perez, who insisted Vinicius Junior is not for sale. "Nobody puts money into this club.
"Will he leave the club? I didn't say that... many things can happen. We will think about it at the end of the season."
