Paper Talk: Liverpool on alert as tempting Kylian Mbappe transfer fee emerges; Mourinho to send Spurs flop packing Talk that reported Liverpool target Kylian Mbappe can leave PSG is gathering pace, while one Jose Mourinho signing at Tottenham could be heading for the exit door, according to Saturday’s transfer gossip. MBAPPE TRANSFER TALK HEIGHTENS Kylian Mbappe is looking increasingly likely to leave PSG in summer 2021, according to reports. The World Cup winner is contracted to the Ligue 1 giants until 2022 and talks over a renewal have, so far, failed to see an agreement reached. Should he refuse to sign the new deal in the coming months, the Daily Mail claims Mbappe will be sold in the summer. And with just 12 months left on his deal, it’s suggested a fee of £160m will be enough to prise the player away. The player has been strongly linked with Real Madrid in the Spanish press. As such, they are confident Los Blancos will be Mbappe’s next club. However, the player has regularly hawked his wares to Liverpool. Indeed, he regularly flirts with the Reds over a future move to Anfield. Whether Liverpool would spent £160m on one player appears unlikely. To do so, it would likely mean the sale of Mohamed Salah or Sadio Mane first. Nonetheless, with Mbappe refusing to sign a new deal, talk of a move away will only gather pace. PSG’s sporting director Leonardo explained recently: “We’ve started talks on several fronts over the renewal of certain players. “We have to adapt to the reality of the current economic climate. But we have started discussions over the renewals we have in mind. [Angel] Di Maria, Neymar and Mbappe, as well as [Juan] Bernat and [Julian] Draxler. We are going to intensify these negotiations in the coming days.” Liverpool, meanwhile, have also been linked with Dayot Upamecano. His prospective signing though has come with a warning from a popular commentator.

MBAPPE TRANSFER TALK HEIGHTENS

Kylian Mbappe is looking increasingly likely to leave PSG in summer 2021, according to reports.

The World Cup winner is contracted to the Ligue 1 giants until 2022 and talks over a renewal have, so far, failed to see an agreement reached.

Should he refuse to sign the new deal in the coming months, the Daily Mail claims Mbappe will be sold in the summer.

And with just 12 months left on his deal, it’s suggested a fee of £160m will be enough to prise the player away.

The player has been strongly linked with Real Madrid in the Spanish press. As such, they are confident Los Blancos will be Mbappe’s next club.

However, the player has regularly hawked his wares to Liverpool. Indeed, he regularly flirts with the Reds over a future move to Anfield.

Whether Liverpool would spent £160m on one player appears unlikely. To do so, it would likely mean the sale of Mohamed Salah or Sadio Mane first.

Nonetheless, with Mbappe refusing to sign a new deal, talk of a move away will only gather pace.

PSG’s sporting director Leonardo explained recently: “We’ve started talks on several fronts over the renewal of certain players.
