On Tuesday, Marca named Liverpool in a report which detailed Kylian Mbappé’s desire to leave Paris Saint-Germain in January.
Later that day, Foot Mercato explained the Reds are the ‘most plausible option’ for the 23-year-old. L’Equipe on Wednesday relay Marca’s report and then share their own information on this case.
L’Equipe question where the ex-Monaco man could end up next. Real Madrid remain a potential destination, while Liverpool are also in the mix. The Reds are considered a likelier destination than Manchester City, given Pep Guardiola’s side signed Erling Haaland, and it’s stated Jurgen Klopp’s side are ‘dreaming’ of the signing.
Radio Marca had a word with journalist Nacho González, who said it would be best for Liverpool to instead focus on signing Borussia Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham over the Ligue 1 star.
With regards to Liverpool as a possible destination for Mbappé, González said: “It doesn’t make much sense seeing how Liverpool have acted in the market.”
“Bellingham is a profile that they need, in addition they have already signed Luis Díaz and invested a lot for him. The battle ahead is Bellingham.”
The financial side of a move for the PSG player looks difficult for Liverpool and there’s also the chance this is all a power-play by the France international to get what he wants at his current club.
