Liverpool is a “credible and dangerous candidate” In the Mbappe transfer drama

Given Real Madrid’s “counterproductive” hard-ball strategy and Liverpool’s long-standing interest in Mbappe, the latter is thought to be a genuine candidate to sign the player.

The PSG player will be able to formally arrange a summer free transfer switch with interested clubs. The French powerhouses now face the possibility of losing their golden boy for nothing after failing to persuade Mbappe to extend his contract prior to the January transfer market opening.

But Mbappe hasn’t indicated that he’s in a rush to go, nor that he wants to leave badly. Conversely, PSG officials are optimistic that he will still sign a new contract and, by signing a long-term agreement, put an end to this two-year transfer story.

The 25-year-old has apparently been given until mid-January by Real Madrid, his top suitor, to decide what to do with his future. However, it is thought that Mbappe won’t allow pressure to make a snap decision. Conversely, it is unlikely that he will decide until the spring.

Le Parisien claims that Los Blancos’ hard-ball approach is really ineffective and is making room for other interested clubs.

Liverpool in for Mbappe?

It is commonly known that Liverpool has been a longtime fan of the 25-year-old. In reality, in 2017 Jurgen Klopp made a personal attempt, but failed, to persuade the young player from Monaco to sign with the Reds.

The Reds are reportedly sensing an opportunity to seize it since his contract is about to expire. There is a feeling that this is Liverpool’s best chance to intervene, as Real Madrid have shot themselves in the foot with their deadline and the PSG project still doesn’t seem fully convincing and good enough to win the Champions League.

Even while the Reds know there is very little likelihood of a trade happening, they will nevertheless attempt it. In terms of being “the most credible and dangerous candidate” to challenge PSG at this point, Liverpool is stated in the aforementioned article.

While Mbappe is aware of Klopp’s long-standing respect, the Frenchman might become the team’s unquestioned star player if Mohamed Salah leaves for Saudi Arabia in the summer.

Liverpool ‘prepared to sign $99 million check’ as Joshua Kimmich claim may start Man Utd transfer battle

Recent reports from Liverpool suggest that the team is prepared to spend heavily on a defender and that a fight for Joshua Kimmich with Manchester United may be imminent.

Now that the January transfer window is open, there are many theories floating around about what Liverpool might accomplish. Reports indicate that a defender may be close to signing a major contract, and Joshua Kimmich may face Manchester United in the near future. This is your summary of the most recent Liverpool news.

Leny Yoro, a defender for Lille, is reportedly “ready” for Liverpool to sign. However, the 18-year-old won’t be acquired cheaply.

As per Paisley Gates, the most recent sources from the continent indicate that the Reds would need to forfeit $99 million (£78 million/€90 million). Despite this, Liverpool is reportedly still keen to sign one of the most sought-after players in Ligue 1.

Le10Sport, a French publication, claims Liverpool is “ready to sign a nice cheque” to acquire Yoro, beating out some of its fiercest competitors in the process. Lille has apparently been contacted by Manchester United and City as well.

Though not as far along as Liverpool, PSG is rumoured to be in the running. According to the article, Lille is in negotiations with all parties, but keeping Yoro this month is still its top objective.

Liverpool and Man Utd in Kimmich battle

According to reports originating from Spain, Liverpool and Manchester United may soon be in competition to get Joshua Kimmich. The German international has been mentioned in connection with a possible January transfer from Bayern Munich.

Wataru Endō’s departure for the Asian Cup means that Liverpool’s choices in defensive midfield will be further constrained in the coming weeks. This has prompted concerns that, even though defence appears to be taking precedence right now, the engine room should look at other options.

Both Liverpool and United are reportedly interested in signing Kimmich, who is rumoured to be considering leaving Bayern ahead of a possible summer sale, according to the Spanish publication AS. In addition to giving the Reds an extra midfield option, he can also play right back, so if they decide to start Trent Alexander-Arnold in the centre, they have another choice.

However, Kimmich is older than the typical player the Reds would pursue at age 28. In the event that Liverpool decides to sign another midfield player by the summer, then other choices may become available.
