Liverpool have lost an almighty player. The Reds loss is PSG’s gain. Reported Liverpool target Kylian Mbappe is delighted to be playing with Gini Wijnaldum next season. Maybe the Dutchman can persuade his new teammate to choose a move to Anfield.
Liverpool links to Kylian Mbappe
For years now the Reds have been rumoured to be interested in France’s crown prince.
ESPN reported on Liverpool interest in Kylian Mbappe whilst Guillem Balague has said the Parisians are looking for £155m for their boy wonder.
The goal machine netted 27 goals in the French Ligue 1 this season, an almighty tally given that he’s still just 22-years-old.
Kylian Mbappe on Gini Wijnaldum
This summer sees the expiration of Gini Wijnaldum’s contract at Liverpool.
The Dutchman joined the Reds from Newcastle United in 2016 and he has since become a crucial member of the midfield.
Barely missing a Premier League game across five years, we will miss him sorely.
Kylian Mbappe is delighted that Gini Wijnaldum has decided to join PSG ahead of Barcelona. The French forward told Le10 Sport:
“He’s really a very good player, I’m very happy he’s coming, it was a great opportunity that the club seized. They worked very well.”
What RTK has to say
We can only hope that Gini has Kylian’s ear when they link up for pre-season.
Liverpool fans will be praying that the Dutchman does his ex club a favour by talking Mbappe into an Anfield switch.
We face fierce competition from Real Madrid, we need all the help we can get.
