Liverpool have been informed that the battle for Kylian Mbappe’s signature is now between Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid.
Mbappe is out of contract this summer and will be able to leave PSG on a free transfer having, thus far, failed to come to an agreement on an extension. Madrid attempted to sign the World Cup winner on three occasions last summer, only to see a bid in excess of €200million (£171m) turned down.
Less than a year on, Los Blancos look set to land him on a free transfer and will therefore be able to put together an enticing financial package including wages, incentives and signing-on fees. It is understood that Mbappe met Madrid general director Jose Angel Sanchez in the Spanish capital last week, where Marca report an agreement was reached.
