Liverpool have launched an offensive for PSG striker Kylian Mbappe and will challenge Real Madrid over the France international’s signing, according to a report from Spain.
Mbappe’s future at Parc des Princes is very much up in the air, with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi giving the superstar an ultimatum on Wednesday. Either the 24-year-old signs a new contract with the club or he is sold against his wishes this summer. PSG do not want to lose him for nothing next summer.
Real Madrid are favourites to land the forward, but according to El Chiringuito, Liverpool are making a strong move for the World Cup winner.

“Liverpool have entered the picture. The offer that has arrived at the offices of PSG in the last hours is €200m for Mbappe,” it is declared on the Spanish TV show. “The English team is moving very quickly.
“Yesterday, Al-Khelaifi put his best player, Mbappe, up for sale.
“The English club has moved very quickly and put up an offer on the table for €200m.
“It won’t be difficult to come to an agreement with PSG, but the key is to convince Mbappe.
“Do I think that Mbappe will go to Liverpool? I don’t think so.
“Mbappe wants to play for Real Madrid.
“The agreement for Mbappe and Madrid for 2024 is already done. Madrid and Mbappe are very calm.”
Liverpool’s chances of signing Mbappe
Liverpool are highly unlikely to sign Mbappe this summer. For one, the Anfield club are notoriously prudent in the transfer market, so such a deal would shatter their trend of buying players with the potential to become superstars.
Furthermore, the forward isn’t up for sale yet. PSG are still hopeful that he will sign a new contract with the club, but they are prepared to let him leave if he does not.
FootballTransfers revealed that Arsenal are interested in the player should he become a free agent next summer, and if that eventuality was reached Mbappe, who has admitted he loves Jurgen Klopp’s brand of football, may be a more realistic target, albeit one they are a big outside to sign.
