The future of Kylian Mbappe in France is unclear, and reports suggest that PSG is prepared to reach an agreement to sell him to Liverpool.
We covered a report earlier today (via AS) that the Reds are preparing a sizable offer for the Frenchman, who may cost up to £173 million.
Fichajes, a different Spanish source, recently claimed that PSG had specifically contacted the Merseysiders to offer them the services of Mbappe.
Real Madrid, who are still motivated to sign him, are said to be the 24-year-old star’s preferred location.
The Les Bleus forward, who as a teenager won the FIFA World Cup in 2018, has always admired Jurgen Klopp’s squad and claimed that Liverpool are a “machine” back in 2020 (BBC).
The Reds had been on an amazing winning streak and were the reigning European champions at the time.
Now, though, things are entirely different because the Liverpool club won’t be competing in Europe’s top league, the UEFA Champions League, in the upcoming campaign.
Therefore, even the most optimistic fans probably wouldn’t think that Mbappe would want to give up playing in the Champions League to join Liverpool.
The above-mentioned £173 million asking price as well as his annual salary of £33 point 8 million would be prohibitive for Fenway Sports Group.
What do you think—should Liverpool supporters hope to sign Kylian Mbappe?

Kylian Mbappé could be a setback for Erik ten Hag, thus Man Utd “turns to $33 million Liverpool transfer target”
Kylian Mbappé could thwart a summer transfer plan by Manchester United, and Erik ten Hag might choose to sign a player who has been linked to the Reds.
With only three weeks until the start of the new Premier League season, it seems like many clubs, including Liverpool, still have a lot of work to do in order to be prepared.
While Manchester City is interested in RB Leipzig’s Joko Gvardiol but has not yet been able to finalize a deal, Chelsea’s squad still lacks a quality midfielder as the pursuit of Moisés Caicedo has not yet come to a close. Mateo Kovai, who was acquired from Chelsea, is excellent when he performs at his peak, but he will need to work very hard to match the impact of lkay Gündoan, who moved to Barcelona.
Tottenham still hasn’t found a resolution to the Harry Kane saga because Bayern Munich is interested in the striker, and Newcastle United has more work to do now that Sandro Tonali and Harvey Barnes have joined the team.
Before the season starts, Liverpool needs at least one more midfielder, and Manchester United, despite adding Mason Mount and a goalkeeper, still requires more offensive firepower to keep up with its rivals.
Here, Liverpool .
com scans the other major clubs in the Premier League and across Europe to look at the news happening at the other teams, with Manchester United prominently featured.
Sofyan Amrabat transfer latest
Manchester United is reportedly interested in signing Moroccan midfielder Sofyan Amrabat, who has been linked with Liverpool. However, it is premature to say that the Old Trafford club has made an offer for the 26-year-old.
Amrabat, who is entering the final year of his contract, is generating interest from a number of parties and is valued at $33 million (£26 million/€30 million) by Fiorentina, who would be open to letting him leave. The player is also being pursued by Atlético Madrid and clubs in Saudi Arabia in addition to Liverpool and Manchester United.
Of all the rumored Amrabat suitors, Liverpool’s need for a defensive midfielder is the greatest, according to Liverpool . com, but it is still unclear which player the Reds will turn to for that position. In a week or two, everything will become clear.
Manchester United’s search for a striker could be impacted by Kylian Mbappé.
Despite not moving to Liverpool this summer, Kylian Mbappé could still help the Reds beat Manchester United in the standings next year if PSG is forced to compete for the services of a crucial Erik ten Hag transfer target.
Rasmus Hjlund of Atalanta has been targeted by Manchester United, who is in desperate need of a number nine to enter the game and score goals. There aren’t many other obvious options for strikers on the market.
But now that Mbappé is up for sale, PSG is lining up Hjlund as a replacement and may even sell Hugo Ekitike in exchange, according to Sacha Tovalieri of RMC Sport. PSG believes that Mbappé will sign a free transfer agreement with Real Madrid next summer.
The Serie A team was already considering Ekitike, which might make them receptive to signing him, while Manchester United and PSG were looking for ways to reduce the $111 million (£87 million/€100 million) asking price for Hjlund.
Even if Hjlund signs with Manchester United, as a 20-year-old moving to a major team, there is no guarantee that he will make an immediate impact and feel at home, according to Liverpool . com.
He will be an enormous investment for whoever takes the risk, but Ten Hag’s problem with finding a number nine is similar to Liverpool’s problem with replacing Fabinho in that there aren’t many obvious options to consider that aren’t either valued at enormous sums or would involve big risks.
