Liverpool: Kylian Mbappe is ‘very interested’ says pundit
Liverpool are flying high in the Premier League as they are set to win their first title in 30 years with an undefeated run that extends back to January 2019. But that doesn't mean the Reds won't look to make any signings in the upcoming summer transfer window as they will want to maintain their dominance at home and in Europe.
Buying this calibre of player is difficult. I don't see any club at the moment who can buy Kylian Mbappe from PSG.

One star that is being tentatively linked with a move to Anfield is Kylian Mbappe who has been rising through the ranks ever since breaking out to the scene in 2016 with Monaco.
Mbappe's goalscoring prowess continues at Paris Saint-Germain where he has scored a staggering total of 84 goals in 116 appearances for the club.
The France international has therefore attracted a lot of interest from a number of major clubs, including Real Madrid and the Premier League leaders.
However, Liverpool won't be able to sign him in the summer for these three reasons.

1. Too expensive
Mbappe joined PSG from Monaco in 2017 on an initial loan deal that then turned into a £166million permanent transfer a year later.
The French champions have since been unwilling to let their star striker go as they are also being bombarded with offers by Barcelona for Neymar.
Even if the Ligue 1 giants agree to let the France international go they will demand a hefty fee in return that could even eclipse the world record £200m they splashed for Neymar in 2017.
