Liverpool completing £107.4m move worries selling club as contract renewal talks called off by player

Liverpool are reportedly worrying PSG as they could sign Kylian Mbappe in what would be a damning move for the Ligue 1 side.

This week was a pivotal one in the career of young Mbappe as the 22-year-old missed the decisive penalty shootout as France crashed out of the European Championships Round of 16 against Switzerland.

RMC Sport now reports that the Ligue 1 giants are concerned that they could lose Mbappe to Real Madrid or Liverpool which they feel would damage the club's reputation and harm their ambition.

I mentioned that Gareth Bale leaving the Santiago Bernabeu in 2022 could give Madrid the ability to offer Mbappe massive wages as they would be removing his £600,000 per week wages from their salary bill.

PSG signed Kylian Mbappe from AS Monaco as part of a deal worth £166million so losing him for free next summer would constitute a massive failure and RMC Sport states that it would harm their ambition and reputation irreparably.

But as I wrote yesterday, Liverpool should use Nike to subsidise a marquee move for the 22-year-old.

After PSG were beaten to the Ligue 1 title by Lille and were eliminated by Manchester City in the Champions League semi-final, Mbappe claimed he wants to join a team that can match his desire to win all the major trophies available.

Liverpool signing Mbappe this summer would be incredible but unfortunately, it seems out of the realms of possibility considering that FSG never make big money moves without generating the funds from player sales first.

Given that it would require Liverpool to sell one of the front three to sign Mbappe this year, it seems likey that he will remain at PSG especially after president Nasser Al-Khelaifi said he will never leave the club.
