‘Last hours’: Liverpool have just made a huge offer for Kylian Mbappé

Liverpool have reportedly raised a record €200m to sign PSG striker Kylian Mbappé, who is believed to be for sale.

According to journalist Edu Aguirre, the Reds have launched a huge bid to bring the 24-year-old France international to Anfield, with Liverpool long seen as a potential destination for Mbappé once the superstar striker decides to leave France for good.

Aguirre said: “What has happened in the PSG offices in the last few hours is that an offer has arrived from Liverpool. Liverpool have entered the picture, Liverpool have made a €200m offer for Mbappé.

The Liverpool’s offer that arrived in the offices of PSG in the last few hours amounts to 200 million euros. Al-Khelaifi has put Mbappé up for sale.”

While the merits of such an outrageous claim have yet to be determined, a £170m offer for Mbappé from Liverpool would be quite the statement from the Reds as the PSG forward is arguably the best player in the league. world.

However, such claims should be taken with a grain of salt. And with Liverpool rumored to be looking to move players before signing new names, the squad’s arrival of Jurgen Klopp making a £170m offer for Mbappe seems somewhat far-fetched.

Liverpool’s signing of Mbappé would be the biggest turning point of the summer

Liverpool and Mbappé have been involved in every transfer window over the past five years and rumors could come to a head this summer with PSG now open to selling the French captain, although a move to Liverpool would come as a shock to many.

As we know, Liverpool currently lack the resources to make such a transfer possible, and even if the money were there, it is unlikely Mbappé would be willing to sign next season for a club that isn’t even in the game. The UEFA Champions League is underway. , despite how big the giants of Merseyside are.

More news…….

Jurgen Klopp is getting ready to spend an additional £75 million to bring in a pair of players.

Despite acquiring Dominik Szoboszlai from RB Leipzig and Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has not completed his summer transfer business.

Dominik Szoboszlai’s transfer from RB Leipzig was completed on Sunday, and Liverpool announced their second transfer of the summer transfer period.

After Liverpool exercised the 22-year-old international’s £60 million release clause, he agreed to a five-year contract. Following the World Cup winner’s £55 million transfer from Premier League rival Brighton in June, he joins Alexis Mac Allister at Anfield.

In order to avoid another unsuccessful season, Liverpool is anticipated to increase spending. Last season, Jurgen Klopp’s team missed out on cup competitions and finished fifth in the Premier League. The upcoming season will see them participate in the Europa League.

Here are the most recent headlines from Merseyside, but who else is Liverpool pursuing?

Thuram momentum builds

The Express reports that Liverpool will increase their interest in Nice midfielder Khephren Thuram. Liverpool waited until after the U21 Euros to make their move, despite the 22-year-old midfielder being on Klopp’s shortlist for a while.

Thuram was able to concentrate on a summer transfer after France’s unexpected 3-1 loss to Ukraine in the tournament’s quarterfinals on Sunday night in Georgia and Romania. The £30 million talent has also drawn interest from Newcastle.

Thuram, the son of renowned French defender Lillian, was recently selected for the Ligue 1 Team of the Year after making 35 appearances in the league last year. In their 4-0 victory over the Netherlands in March, he made his senior debut for France.

Thuram, a defensive midfielder by trade, could line up behind Mac Allister and Szoboszlai in Klopp’s revamped midfield. The other midfielders for Liverpool are Stegan Bajcetic, Fabinho, Thiago Alcantara, Jordan Henderson, Curtis Jones, and Harvey Elliott.

Lavia bid Ready.
According to talkSPORT, Liverpool is planning to submit a first offer for Southampton midfielder Romeo Lavia. Chelsea and Arsenal are both interested in signing the 19-year-old international from Belgium, who is expected to leave Southampton after they were demoted to the Championship.

Lavia’s worth is estimated by Liverpool to be around £45 million, but Southampton has set a £50 million price on him. Because they owe his former club Manchester City 20% of any future sales, the Saints won’t sell him for a low price.

When he joined Southampton a year ago, City made a £10.5 million initial payment. Liverpool’s other midfielders on their roster make it unlikely that they will sign both Lavia and Thuram.

As Al-Ettifaq’s new manager, Steven Gerrard has been chosen. The Liverpool legend was initially hesitant to accept the position after traveling to Saudi Arabia for negotiations a month ago, but he has since been persuaded to try.

Since being fired by Aston Villa nine months ago, Gerrard has been without a job. After his unsuccessful tenure at Villa Park, the former England captain’s managerial career is in jeopardy, despite the fact that he was successful at Rangers.

In May 2021, Gerrard and Rangers defeated Celtic, ending their nine-year hegemony.
Al-Ettifaq may find it challenging to compete in the upcoming season as they are not one of the four Saudi Pro League clubs owned by the nation’s Public Investment Fund.
