Mbappé does not want Pochettino and has asked for this coach for next season

According to ESPN, Mbappé spoke to Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez to inform him of his decision, in addition to communicating it to PSG coach Mauricio Pochettino and his teammates.

With the French striker's decision, another star has said no to Blancos, and Mbappé was not the only one who refused to arrive at the Santiago Bernabéu. 

What other stars rejected Real Madrid?

Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Before he arrived at Barcelona in 2009, the Swedish striker was tempted by the Merengues, who tried to sign him when he was playing for Inter Milan in Italy's Serie A, however, they were never able to convince him and 'Ibra' decided to sign for the Catalans.

Didier Drogba

The Ivorian was on the radar of the Merengues when Drogba played for Chelsea, the team with which he exploited his talent and became known worldwide. However, with several offers to the English side, the African striker never reached an agreement with the Spaniards.

David De Gea

One of the most innocent mistakes in recent years, when everything was arranged for the Spanish goalkeeper to leave Manchester United and join Real Madrid, a fax prevented the transfer from being completed. Although they later tried to sign him, there was a refusal from those involved.

Paul Pogba

The French midfielder was of interest to Zinedine Zidane when the French coach was in charge of the team. Although they had tried to sign him two seasons earlier, Pogba never reached an agreement with the Merengue board.

Francesco Totti

The eternal captain of Roma confessed that Real Madrid and Florentino Perez looked for him on more than one occasion, but due to the comfort of his family, he did not leave the Italian capital and stayed with the 'Loba'.

Steven Gerrard

A similar case to Totti's was that of the Liverpool star, who became eternal with the Reds. Steve G' was tempted by the Spaniards, but due to his love for the team and how happy his family was, he declined the offers.

Cesc Fabregas

The Spaniard, who arrived at Arsenal at a very young age, where he became a star and captain, was wanted by Los Merengues in 2010 but decided to join Barcelona when the Gunners were approached with an offer.

Neymar Jr

The Brazilian was wanted by Real Madrid and they tried to buy him from PSG, but they never reached an economic agreement and the former Barcelona player did not materialize his arrival with Los Merengues.
