Liverpool have a head start on other Premier League clubs when Kylian Mbappé becomes available on a free transfer next summer, according to a French journalist close to the situation.
Real Madrid remain the big favorites to sign the Bondynois at the end of his contract with Paris Saint-Germain next summer, but his current employers are also working to get him to sign a new contract which would still guarantee his sale in 2024.
Real Madrid have broken the transfer record four times since the turn of the millennium – for Luis Figo, Zinedine Zidane, Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale – but may not be able to do it again if the need arises feel. But Liverpool are in a good position.
“Real Madrid remains the big favorite, of course, for next summer“, declared Julien Laurens, journalist at Parisianhas ESPN.
“I think Liverpool have a case to make, especially if he is free. All the big clubs in England should be interested in him and he will choose the place that suits him best. His mother is a big Liverpool fan, he loves Liverpool, he loves what Liverpool have done under Jurgen Klopp. »
“It is possible that they are a little ahead, not of Real Madrid, but of the other English clubs, (Man) City, Arsenal, (Manchester) United, Chelsea, Spurs. There is plenty of money to pay his salary and a signing bonus, if they had the money or some sort of offer for him he would definitely listen. »
