Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe has said on Twitter that he will support Real Madrid against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool in the final of the Champions League this coming weekend.
Klopp’s Liverpool will take on La Liga champions Real Madrid in the final of the Champions League this coming Saturday.
The 23-year-old France international forward has publicly said that he will back Madrid against Liverpool.
This follows Mbappe’s decision not to join Madrid and sign a new contract with PSG.
Liverpool were also linked with a move for the 23-year-old in the summer transfer window.
Klopp publicly praised the forward, but it seems that Mbappe does not want Liverpool to win against Madrid in the Champions League final.
Kylian Mbappe on Liverpool v Real Madrid Champions League final
Mbappe wrote on Twitter, as translated by BBC Sport: “I can imagine their disappointment. I will be their biggest fan in the Champions League final in Paris. My home.”
Who’ll win the final?
In our view, Liverpool will head into the Champions League final against Real Madrid as favourites.
Yes, Madrid beat Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Manchester City on their way to the final, but Liverpool have arguably the better team.
Liverpool have one of the strongest attacking units in Europe, and they are likely to score a goal or two against Madrid.
However, as Los Blancos showed against Chelsea, PSG and City, you can never write them off.
Never.
