Klopp in talks with Mbappe

According to L’Equipe, via Liverpool Echo, Jurgen Klopp has been in talks with Kylian Mbappe over the past few weeks.

The report claims that Klopp has had a number of conversations with the striker as he looks to tempt him into a move to Anfield.

The report does, however, go on to say that a move to Liverpool is unlikely. This is given the interest from the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona, with Manchester City and PSG also said to be keen.

The 18-year-old has told Monaco that he wants to leave and Liverpool has not yet been ruled out as a possible destination for the rising star.

Liverpool have been closely following his progress and are ready to make a move if he becomes available.

The teenager scored 26 goals in 44 games during his debut campaign for Monaco last season, having scored one in 14 the season prior.
