Report: Liverpool looking into signing player who Messi says will become one of the world's best

Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool are really keen on signing Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe.

That is according to Football Transfers, which has named the player Liverpool would have to offload to get a deal done for Mbappe.

So, what has been reported about Liverpool and Kylian Mbappe? Let’s take a look.

Liverpool want to sign Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe

Well, according to Football Transfers, Liverpool “are exploring the possibility” of signing Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe.

Mbappe is out of contract at PSG at the end of the season, and the France international forward does not plan to activate the option to extend his deal by another year.

Liverpool are “keen” on the PSG forward and “will look to persuade him to join up at Anfield”, according to the report.

Football Transfers, though, has added that any potential deal for Mbappe will depend on the future of Mohamed Salah.

Liverpool will bring the 24-year-old forward to Anfield only if Salah leaves for a club in Saudi Arabia in the summer of 2024 for a lot of money.

Arsenal have been linked with Mbappe, who is a world-class forward.

Kylian Mbappe would be an upgrade on Mohamed Salah

In my view, Kylian Mbappe would be an upgrade on Mohamed Salah. And, yes, I really mean that.

Salah is one of the best forwards on the planet and is genuinely world class and incredible. He is a goal machine.

However, Mbappe is younger, quicker and more lethal in front of goal. The forward has the potential to become even better than Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in terms of numbers.

Messi himself rates Mbappe highly. The Argentine genius played with the Frenchman at PSG and thinks that he could become one of the best on the planet.

The Mirror quoted Messi as saying about Mbappe in December 2022: “Kylian is a different player, a beast who is very strong in one-on-one, who goes into space, who is very fast, who scores a lot of goals.

“He is a complete player and he has proved it for years, and in the years to come, he will certainly be among the best.”
