As Real Madrid ‘abandon’ transfer pursuit Liverpool have two Kylian Mbappe trump cards

Kylian Mbappe appears to be nearing the end of his six-year tenure at Paris Saint-Germain.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp says two key factors could help the Reds if they try to sign Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain.
The Frenchman’s deal could be completed in the summer when his contract expires, with long-term Real Madrid leaving the transfer race wide open.

Los Blancos were expected to welcome Mbappe to the Bernabeu last summer, but the striker sensationally pulled out and signed for mega-money Parc des Princes instead.

Despite PSG’s best efforts, Mbappé looks set to leave the French capital at the end of the season, with his lucrative contract set to expire in June.

The 24-year-old has scored more than 200 first-team goals for the Parisians and would be on the wishlist of almost every top club in Europe if money allowed.

According to Spanish outlet Carousel Deportivo, Real Madrid have “absolutely refused” to pressure Mbappé about the financial obligations that would be part of the deal.
Mbappe’s wage demands would require a significant change in Liverpool’s approach, but Klopp has two cards in his hand to ignore the striker’s demands.

First, the Reds manager’s interest was real and long-standing. When Mbappe first joined AS Monaco in 2017, Klopp met with the player and his camp to discuss a possible move to Anfield.

“We talked a little, but not much,” Mbappe told The Telegraph last year.
“It’s a good club and I met them five years ago when I was at Monaco.
This is a big club.”

The France international will no doubt be delighted at the opportunity to work under a manager he has admired for many years.
Klopp himself said as much shortly after Mbappe’s comments.

“Of course we are interested in Kylian Mbappe.
We are not blind! There is nothing to say about it. Everything is between Kylian and Liverpool.
are you feeling alright. Of course we like it. If not, you may need to ask yourself: But we cannot and do not participate in this fight.
Other clubs may need to participate, but that’s okay. He’s still a great player.”

The second step for the “Reds” concerns the support of the Mbappe camp. The World Cup winner’s mother has been a lifelong Liverpool fan.

He explained: “I spoke to Liverpool because they are my mum’s favorite club and she loves Liverpool too. I don’t know why, but I guess I’ll have to ask him!”

With Real eliminated, Liverpool are prime movers to land Mbappe from PSG and his situation means clubs outside Ligue 1 could begin pre-contract talks in January.

What Real Madrid is presently considering in regards to selling Liverpool an “exceptional” player

Despite speculation that teams like Liverpool would be interested in Aurelien Tchouameni in 2024, Real Madrid is allegedly not planning to let him go.

The French international is not being let go by Los Blancos, despite worries this summer that Jude Bellingham’s arrival would push Tchouameni out of the Madrid starting lineup, according to 90min.

Sadly for Liverpool, though, the exact reverse has occurred, as the 23-year-old midfielder has established himself as a vital member of Carlo Ancelotti’s team this season, beginning in the El Clasico last weekend.

Paul Pogba called Tchouameni a “exceptional” player, and Liverpool has been linked to him for what seems like forever.

And the Reds’ bold plan to sign the French international and bring him to Anfield in 2024 may be severely derailed by this most recent news.

Tchouameni would be a fantastic midfield addition to Liverpool’s current roster, but it would be strange for the young player to leave this Madrid club, as Los Blancos are building something spectacular.

It would be insane for Tchouameni to move from Madrid to Liverpool.

Exciting times are ahead in the Spanish city, and Tchouameni leaving Madrid for Liverpool would be an extremely absurd move. He would star alongside Bellingham in a revamped midfield.

The world’s largest club is home to the French international, who is assembling one of the most intriguing midfield combinations in sports history.

Furthermore, Liverpool should have given up on signing Tchouameni as the Reds have no chance of doing so even if they try again in 2024.
