According to a report, Liverpool has made contact to sign a $166 million player.

According to reports, Liverpool has gotten in touch with Kylian Mbappe’s agents after PSG this week listed the France international on its transfer list.

The news that PSG will now sell Mbappe this summer has reportedly piqued Liverpool’s interest, according to Football Transfers, who claim that the Reds have been in talks with the attacker’s camp about a potential move.

Mbappe has been associated with the Merseyside giants for what seems like an eternity. Even though they will have to compete with Real Madrid for the 24-year-old striker’s signature, Liverpool may now have their best chance ever to sign him during this transfer window.

A prospect that few fans can imagine this summer is that Liverpool will have to break their transfer record nearly three times over if they want to entice the former AS Monaco superstar to Anfield after PSG purchased Mbappe for an astounding £166 million in 2017.

The forward has in fact always supported Liverpool. Although Mbappe’s team has been in contact with Jurgen Klopp’s side, there is still a very slim chance that the Reds will actually sign the French sensation, especially since Real Madrid remains the favorite.

Mbappe moving to Liverpool still seems impossible.

Almost all Red supporters have fantasized about the Mbappe to Liverpool transfer at least once over the past five years. Even though the striker left Paris this summer, a transfer for the Anfield giants this window still feels like a fantastic fantasy.

As one of the highest-paid players in the game, Mbappe will demand wages that match his current earnings, which Liverpool simply cannot afford, even if they were to overcome the first significant financial hurdle of meeting PSG’s demands for the forward, which are anticipated to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

The $46 million Fabinho heir has been ‘accidentally’ discovered, confirming Liverpool’s transfer masterstroke.

With one outstanding transfer deal completed, Liverpool has new cause for celebration. A Fabinho heir may have been ‘accidentally’ discovered somewhere else.

In the current transfer market, Liverpool may feel as though it is starting over from scratch. Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis MacAllister appeared to have the midfield rebuild on track, but Saudi Arabia has slammed that conclusion.

If the rumored deals for Jordan Henderson and Fabinho go through, Liverpool might find itself in need of purchasing two more midfielders. With no senior defensive presence currently on the roster, a direct starting replacement for the Brazilian would be especially important.

Inadvertent assistance may have been provided to Jörg Schmadtke and Jürgen Klopp in that regard, with a Premier League rival possibly identifying an ideal candidate. From the anticipated Fabinho proceeds, the price being quoted could be fully covered.

But that’s unusual; most transfer fees currently being discussed serve only to confirm Liverpool’s masterstroke this transfer window. Whatever transpires for the remainder of the summer, one transaction will be difficult to surpass.

Liverpool made a brilliant transfer.

Moisés Caicedo is one player Liverpool may not pursue as it searches for a replacement for Fabinho, according to Sky Sports’ Melissa Reddy, who claims he is “not on the list.”. However, the Brighton man is something in which Chelsea is very much interested.

A second $92 million (£70 million/€82 million) transfer bid from the Blues was reportedly rejected, according to The Athletic. For a player who had just finished his first season in the Premier League, that is an incredible sum of money.

But the transfer market is operating in that manner. Despite this, Liverpool was able to use a release clause to obtain Mac Allister from the exact same club for half that sum, which is starting to seem like an unbelievable deal. James Martin’s complete story can be found here.

“Accidentally” discovered was Fabinho’s heir.

When the transfer window first opened, Caicedo and a certain Declan Rice were probably on the list of “ideal” Fabinho successors. Of course, Liverpool had no idea it would lose the Brazilian at the time, effectively ruling out any attempts to sign truly marquee targets.

Rice finally finished this week what had been a protracted transfer to Arsenal. Due to West Ham’s current need for a replacement, this has started a series of events that could result in Liverpool finding a good transfer alternative.

The Hammers are interested in Edson Lvarez, and a $46 million (£35 million/€41 million) bid may be on the table. He would make a good Rice heir if he possessed the same qualities, and he would succeed Fabinho if the Brazilian was “accidentally” replaced. Josh Williams has more to say here.
