Arsenal are currently preparing for a Champions League final against PSG, and a victory in Europe's elite competition could be the catalyst for themost ambitious transfer in the club's history. Success on the continental stage would elevate the Gunners' status to a level where they could realistically compete for a player of Mbappe's stature, offering him a fresh start away from the whistles of the Bernabeu.
Petit concluded that European glory is the key to unlocking such a deal, stating: "Players would of course want to play for the Champions League winners and hope they can go and win it again, it would help them attract Kylian Mbappe if he does leave Real Madrid." For now, Mbappe remains in Madrid, potentially returning for El Clasico, but the door for a Premier League switch appears to be creaking open.
