Liverpool target Kylian Mbappe is keen on joining Real Madrid next summer

According to Marca (h/t Liverpool Echo), Liverpool target 22-year-old French international Kylian Mbappe is reportedly keen on joining Real Madrid next summer.

Mbappe has been making waves as a young sensation in the footballing world. The French international is already being touted as one of the best upcoming players at such a tender age.

It is believed that the Frenchman has a strong inclination towards Real Madrid and would like to join the Spanish club next summer on a free transfer. Liverpool have also been linked with the former AS Monaco player for a long time.

The 22-year-old forward has been making waves and is surrounded by star-studded players like Lionel Messi, Angel di Maria, and Neymar. Despite these big names around him, Mbappe plays an instrumental part at the club in the attacking department.

He has been a key part of Paris Saint-Germain’s attacking threat ever since he made the move to Paris. Liverpool themselves have a feared forward lineup as Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, and Roberto Firmino have terrorised defenders over the last few seasons. That being said a hectic schedule and Liverpool’s intense style of play are bound to take their toll on the best of players.

Mane and Firmino’s form have been subject to certain inconsistency at times and a young exciting forward like Kylian Mbappe could help bring a great attacking threat to Anfield. Even though the management would love to see a player like him at the Merseyside team it is now highly likely that the youngster will make a move to the Bernabeu.

The current developments suggest that PSG is reluctant to let go of their promising young talent but it may only be a matter of time before Mbappe could head out of the French capital.
