Yesterday, there were reports in the media that the French player told the French club that he would leave at the end of the season.
Real Madrid is often rumored to be Mbappe’s next target, but Liverpool are also part of the conversation as they are interested in the 25-year-old. According to The Athletic, Mbappe has expressed his intention to leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season. Sources have revealed that Real Madrid has offered Mbappe a contract that would allow him to begin preliminary talks with teams outside France.
Even before Mbappe left Monaco, Liverpool were interested in the player. Jurgen Klopp admitted in the summer that he would be surprised if the club made a deal for Mbappe. “We laugh about it,” Klopp told Sky Germany in August. “I can say that I think he is a very good player, but his financial situation is not suitable for all of us. Now I don’t want to spoil the story… but as far as I know there is nothing.
“Someone at the club might be planning something that will surprise me… Nothing like this has happened in the eight years I’ve spent here. This will be a first.” Possible transfer to Liverpool There are reports that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez took the lead in bringing Mbappe to the Bernabeu. Real Madrid has long been interested in the player, who also wants to wear the white jersey in the Spanish club.
