Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp would have two key factors helping his cause if the Reds attempt to sign Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain. The Frenchman’s signature may be up for grabs in the summer as his contract winds down, and long-term suitors Real Madrid have reportedly blown the transfer race wide open.<\/p>\n

Despite PSG’s best efforts, Mbappe looks set to finally leave the French capital at the end of the season, with his lucrative deal due to expire in June. The 24-year-old has bagged over 200 first-team goals for the Parisians and would be on the wish list of virtually every top club in Europe if money permitted.<\/p>\n
According to Spanish outlet Carrusel Deportivo, Real Madrid have ‘definitively ruled out’ pushing for Mbappe due to the financial commitments that would form part of the deal.<\/p>\n
