In recent days, speculation has been rife about Liverpool’s potential move for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) superstar Kylian Mbappe.
Liverpool may pursue Mbappe if Salah departs next year, according to reports. However, journalist Florian Plettenberg has denied these rumors, asserting that Liverpool is not actively pursuing a move for Mbappe.
Taking to Twitter, Plettenberg shared insights into the situation, stating. “Been told that Liverpool is NOT pushing for Kylian Mbappé. His transfer in summer 2024 is not an issue at this stage.”
PSG’s Calm Assurance regarding Mbappe
PSG remain relaxed, having financially secured Mbappe’s potential departure through contractual arrangements. Real Madrid are still the most realistic destination for him, either next year or the year after.”
This revelation comes as a surprise to many Liverpool fans who had envisioned Mbappe donning the iconic red jersey.
The idea of acquiring a player of Mbappe’s caliber, especially on a free transfer, is undoubtedly appealing. However, Plettenberg suggests that the financial considerations, including Mbappe’s substantial salary and signing-on fees, make a move to Anfield ‘unlikely‘.
Despite Liverpool’s resurgence and their strong position in the title race, it seems Mbappe’s future may lie elsewhere.
Plettenberg’s information aligns with the belief that Real Madrid remain the most realistic destination for the French sensation, either in the upcoming year or the one following.
The reassurance from PSG regarding Mbappe’s potential departure further underscores their financial stability, easing any concerns they may have about losing their star player.
While Liverpool fans may be disappointed at the debunking of the Mbappe rumors, it appears that the current focus for the Reds is not centered around securing the services of the PSG forward.
As the football world eagerly anticipates the unfolding transfer saga of Kylian Mbappe, one thing seems certain – Liverpool’s pursuit of the Frenchman is not on the agenda at this point.
Mbappe’s talents may captivate many clubs, but as it stands, Liverpool does not appear to be in the race.
