Kylian Mbappe’s private jet meeting with the owner of Liverpool as transfer rumours heat up
Share
Long-term goal for Real Madrid As Kylian Mbappe’s contract with Paris Saint-Germain draws to an end, Premier League powerhouse Liverpool is suddenly showing interest in the player.
The conversation of Kylian Mbappe’s club future is back on the table, but some sources now suggest that he might join Liverpool instead of Real Madrid.
At the end of the current season, the star player for Paris Saint-Germain’s contract with the French powerhouses will expire, and Real Madrid has long been the favourite to sign him. For almost three years, the World Cup champion has piqued the interest of the Spanish powerhouses, but a transfer has never happened.
Though the Reds are reportedly interested in Mbappe, there is information that claims Los Blancos are no longer in the lead to sign him. Before relocating to Paris in 2017, the 25-year-old came dangerously close to joining Anfield.
Mbappe was considering moving from Monaco to Merseyside at the moment, and according to L’Equipe, he even had a two-hour private conversation about the transfer possibility with Reds owner John W. Henry. According to the French publication, Henry invited Mbappe and his family to board his private aircraft when it was in Monaco in an attempt to win them over.
With no transfer fees to pay, sources indicate that Jurgen Klopp is ready to rekindle the team’s interest in Mbappe. This has set off a gossip mill. PSG is still hopeful, nevertheless, that they can persuade the attacker to sign a contract extension at the Parc des Princes.
Nasser Al Khelaifi, the president of PSG, went into great depth about the circumstances on the Rothen s’enflamme RMC podcast. “Look, I’m not trying to hide anything,” he clarified.I want PSG to keep Kylian Mbappe. PSG is the ideal club for him because he is the finest player in the world.
He is essential to our endeavour. Many things have been tried by us; some have been more successful than others. We are not perfect, and we have made mistakes. We currently have a young team with French players, and we have the long term in mind.
“Our system of play has been adjusted, and we have assembled a team that is enjoyable to watch. They are strong technically. It’s amazing how well we play and defend as a team.”
Although Mbappe’s arrival on a free transfer excites Liverpool, it’s thought that the Reds would need to overhaul their entire wage structure if the Frenchman was to join
According to The Telegraph, Mbappe’s agents are requesting an annual salary of £64.5 million, or £1.24 million per week, after taxes. To put things in perspective, Mohamed Salah, the highest paid player at Liverpool right now, makes almost £350,000 a week.

‘Very clear message’ – former Liverpool player makes transfer decision amid Chelsea January links
In spite of previous claims, the former Liverpool player has made a transfer u-turn.
Based on the most recent sources, it appears like Roberto Firmino, the former star of Liverpool, could not be leaving Saudi Arabia after all.
After having difficulty in Saudi Arabia with Al-Ahli, the Brazilian was rumoured to be leaving during the January transfer window. After leaving Anfield in the summer when his contract ended, he made the move and made a fantastic debut with a hat-trick, but he hasn’t scored since.
According to Matt Law of the Telegraph, Firmino was linked to a move to Chelsea as the Blues wanted to reinforce their attack with Armando Broja being their sole senior central striker and Nicolas Jackson out on international duty. It stated that Firmino had grown dissatisfied with Saudi life, however current sources refuted such allegations.
Fabrizio Romano claims that the most recent information regarding Firmino is that he will stay at the Middle East club and that no move is planned. Despite recent claims, Roberto Firmino does not intend to leave Al Ahli during the January transfer window, the player posted on X. Message from his camp, quite clear:
He intends to remain at Al Ahli. No alterations are anticipated. His team is now third in the Saudi Pro League, behind Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal, despite his problems in front of goal. They have one of the league’s most star-studded squads, with players like Edouard Mendy, Franck Kessie, Gabri Veiga, Allan Saint-Maximin, Riyad Mahrez, and Merih Demiral.
Firmino had earlier been connected to a trade to Sheffield United, but there was never any indication that the deal would materialise beyond transfer rumours. In just 25 league games last season, he managed a very respectable 11 goals and 4 assists, which was a fantastic return considering that Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez, and Diogo Jota were all above him in the standings.
